996 Insects. 



are dull red. Some specimens are ochreous, with numerous fine 

 transverse lines ; others, again, are cinereous ; some are strongly reti- 

 culated, others not so ; these last have been named Grossulariana ; 

 all these varieties have a brown fascia at the base, a second oblique 

 one in the middle, dentate within, and a patch of the same colour 

 towards the apex of the costa. I have seen a variety testaceous 

 brown, finely reticulated, with three spots on the costa ; these spots, 

 with the head and thorax, being of a bright cinnamon colour, and 

 giving the insect a beautiful appearance. This variety was taken by 

 Mr. Bedell, I believe, near London ; the species is common about 

 lanes and gardens in July. The palpi of this species are long and 

 stout. 



Sp. 4. LOZOT.ENIA CINNAMOMEANA, Steph. 1. C. p. 71. 



Tortrix cinnamomeanayTxeit&cbikQ, Schmet. von Eur. vii. 61. Fischer, 



PL ix. fig. 2. 

 Measures 1\ lines. This rare species, like its congeners, varies 

 much. I have but two specimens, which are very dissimilar in colour, 

 one extreme pale cinnamon, the other very dark cinnamon, with the 

 usual fascia at the base, the medial oblique one and the spot on the 

 costa ; evidently a rare species. The pale variety I took near Ring- 

 wood, Hants ; the other I obtained from the cabinet of Mr. Stone, 

 The white palpi will at once distinguish this species from its congeners. 



Sp. 5. Lozot^nia Cerasana, Steph. 1. c. 72. 

 Tortrix Cerasana, Hubner, PI. xix. fig. 119. Haworth, 423. T.Ri- 

 beana, Hubner, PI. xviii. fig. 114. Haworth, 423. L. Ribeana, 

 Steph. 1. c. 72. 

 Measures 6 lines to 1 inch. Extremely variable. Anterior wings, 

 usually testaceous, with an obscure bar at the base, a medial oblique 

 one, often interrupted by an irregular dusky blotch, the costa, with a 

 small spot near the apex. Some have the basal half of the anterior 

 wings dark fuscous, with the posterior margin testaceous ; others are 

 all yellow, with transverse dark lines; others, again, are all dark fuscous, 

 with their markings obscure : some are plain testaceous yellow, with the 

 usual fascia, and spots darker. This variety is figured by Hubner by the 

 name of Ribeana, who appears to have been followed by all subse- 

 quent writers, both Foreign* and British. I have for many years 



* I have examined Foreign specimens of these two supposed species, received 

 from the Continent by the British Museum, where every facility is afforded for the 

 Study of Entomology by the present officers of that National Establishment.
