ADDITIONS TO BRITISH LEPIDOPTERA. 187 



AcROLEPiA ASSECTELLA, Zell. As the history of the specimen 

 recorded in E. M. M. xxx. 291 is unknown, there is not sufi&cient 

 evidence for admitting this species into the British list. This 

 latter remark applies also to Xystophora servellay which I purposely 

 omitted, although one example was bred in a London suburban 

 greenhouse (E. M. M. xxv. 361), and two moths taken near King's 

 Lynn may perhaps represent that species (E. M. M. xxx. 51). 



Ornix fagivora, " Sta." For " Sta." read " Frey." 



CoLEOPHORA FLAVAGiNELLA, Zell. Add reference to coloured 

 figures of imago and larval case in Proc. Dors. N. H. & A. F. C. 

 X. pi. adv. p. 197, figs. 5, 5a. 



*CoLEOPHORA ARTEMisiELLA, Scott, Eut. Ann. 1861, p. 89 ; 

 Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond., N.S., v. 409-10, pi. xvii., figs. 2 m, 2 a, 

 should be inserted. This species — so distinct from C. artemisico- 

 lella and C. maritimella, with which it is sometimes confounded — 

 was omitted by Mr. South from the Ent. Syn. List, and also from 

 the ''Additions," though I sent up the name and reference for 

 insertion. 



LiTHocoLLETis ANDERiD^, Flchr. Add reference to coloured 

 figure of imago in Proc. Dors. N. H. & A. F. C. xi. pi. adv. p. 47, 

 fig. 8. 



LiTHOcoLLETis DisTENTELLA, " Frcy." For " Frcy," read 

 *'Zell." 



Nepticula auromarginella, Kdsn. Add reference to coloured 

 figure of imago in Proc. Dors. N. H. & A. F. C. xi. pi. adv. p. 47, 

 fig. 10. 



Nepticula filipendul^, Wk. Omit the *'?" inserted before 

 the name in Entom. *' Additions." I now learn from Mr. W. H. 

 B. Fletcher that he entered the *'?" in his List (Trans. Chich. & 

 W. Sussex N. H. Soc, No. 5) not from any doubt about the 

 identity of his insect with filipendulce, Wk., but in hesitation 

 whether filipendtdce was truly distinct from poterii, Stn. In any 

 csise Jilipendidce stands secure at present. 



Nepticula gei, Wk. For ^' gei, Wk." read "fragariella, 

 Heyd." Dr. Wocke described gei as n.sp. in 1871 in the well- 

 known Catalogue which he compiled with Dr. Staudinger, but 

 himself afterwards sunk it as identical mthfragariella, Heyd., in 

 the concluding part of the 'Schmet. Deutsch. und der Schweiz,' 

 which he brought out in 1877 after the death of Von Heinemann. 



In the list of " Additions, &c.," Catocala electa, Lita ocellatella, 

 and Nepticula ruhivora should have each been marked with an 

 asterisk as having been omitted from the Ent. Syn. List (1884). 



The Kectory, Corfe Castle : February, 1896. 



P.S. — Argyresthia illuminatella, Zell., which was inserted 

 in the ''Additions" {I.e. p. 344) on the strength of the note in 

 E.M. M. xxx. 51, must now disappear from the British List 

 (vide E.M.M. xxxii. 98).— E. R. B., Mrv 4th, 1896.
