Notes on the Rarer Lepidoptera. By G. Bolam. 801 



Eiipithecia subfoilvata. Haw. 

 Several examples have occarred in and about Berwick. 



Eupithecia lariciata. Frr. 



I took two specimens in June 1887 ; one in the flower garden at 

 Twizell House, the other on Doddington Moor. 



Eupithecia indigata. Hb. 

 Taken at Kyloe Wood, 21st May 1888. 



Eupithecia absinthiata. Clerck. 

 One or two taken about Berwick. 



Eupithecia abbreviata. St. 

 Taken on the moor at Kyloe. 



Eupithecia sobrinata. Hb. 



I took a moth, which Mr Eichard South believes to be this, at 

 Kyloe Wood, 21st May 1888. 



Thera si/nulata. Hb. 

 One near Windmill Hill, 16th September 1882. 



Melanthia rubiginata. Fb. 



Occurs rather commonly in the district where old alders grow. I 

 took a specimen at Foulden Hag, on 23rd August 1891, which 

 measures quite an inch and a quarter in expanse of wings. 



Melanthia ocellata. L. 



Not uncommon, and well distributed, on both sides of the border; 

 besides taking it in many localities round Berwick, I have found it 

 along the coast as far as Fast Castle, and at Langleyford it is plentiful 

 in August, and is met with far up on the hill sides. 



, Melanippe galiata. Hb. 



I took a specimen at rest on the sea-cliffs at Marshall Meadows, 

 12th July 1891, and Miss Dickinson had another, taken in her 

 garden at Norham, a year or two previously. 



Coremia inimitata. Hb. 



This is another pretty moth which occurs with M. ocellata, C. 

 populata, etc., at a considerable elevation upon the Cheviots, and is 

 not uncommon about Langleyford. I have also taken it on Cold- 

 ingham Moor, and occasionally in Berwick.
