ABERRATHlgS OF ZYGA^^NA TRIFOLIL 



Fig. 1. Fig. 2. 



The two insects figured above were taken by myself in 

 West Sussex. 



Fig. 1. — This specimen of Zygcena trifolii has only four 

 spots on each wing, and is the only example of this form of the 

 species that I have ever seen. 



Fig. 2 represents a variety of Z. trifolii which I have already 

 referred to in this Journal as reminding me of Z. inlosellce 

 (Entom. xxviii. p. 215). Three examples, all pretty much of 

 this form, were taken. I may add that Z. meliloti and 

 Z. lonicerce also exhibit this pilosellce-YikQ form of aberration, as 

 may be seen by referring to Mr. Barrett's book (vol. ii. pi. 59).
