This beautiful species has by some means been unaccountably 

 omitted from the list, for I took it regularly for many years 

 previous to its publication, and would be certain to include it 

 in the records I gave to Mr. Robson. 



It occurs freely at Egglestone in Teesdale at rest on stone 

 walls, rocks, trees and palings, etc., on Lhe borders of the moors, 

 and also on the moors as well. Mr. Sang has entered it in the 

 index to his diary, but without reference to any record in the 

 diary itself ; probably he had not troubled to enter any captures. 

 I expect this species will be found on the moors in both 

 counties if carefully searched for at the end of May and in 

 early June. The moth is, however, not readily seen on the 

 lichen-covered walls.

The late Alfred Pickard, of Wolsingham, has recorded in his 

 copy of the ''Manual" that he took this species at Shull, 

 August 22nd, 1897, on the trunks of Scotch fir. I also took a 

 worn specimen at sugar on the borders of Hezleden Dene at 

 Middlethorpe in 1905 ; probably this had come from the west of
