clii Pomeranian Species 



middle to the end of August, and may then be easily beaten from the 

 lower boughs of the oaks. It occurs wherever there are lofty oaks, 

 and often sits in the crevices of the bark. At Julo I did not find it. 



4. L. distentella, F. v. R., must be very rare. In the Polchower 

 ground, on the 21st of May, 1849, in the afternoon, amongst many of 

 Saportella, I beat a single, but very beautiful and large specimen of 

 Distentella. 



5. L. coryli (n. sp.), Nicelli. Alls anterioribus obscure aureis, li- 



ned basalt tenuissima alba, slrigulis costce quatuor, dorsi tribus 

 albis, slriola apicls atra, tarsis* posticis albis nigro annularis. 



A species which even the tyro must take to be distinct from Pomi- 

 foliella. From Pomonella it is easily distinguished by its very dis- 

 tinctly spotted hinder tarsi; from other nearly allied species, the streak 

 at the apex of the wing separates it. Prom Pomifoliella it is distin- 

 guished by the ground colour of the anterior wings, which is golden- 

 yellow in Pomifoliella, but golden-brown in Coryli ; besides which it 

 is distinguished by the basal streak, which is very fine, and of equal 

 breadth, whereas that of Pomifoliella becomes broader towards the 

 end ; and lastly, by an uninterrupted longitudinal white line on the 

 thorax, this line being in Pomifoliella indistinct and interrupted. 



Size of Pomifoliella, not unfrequently larger. Face and palpi shin- 

 ing white, antennae pale, faintly annulated with black. Tuft whitish, 

 above more or less browned or darkened. Thorax colour of the 

 anterior wings, a fine white line runs through the entire length of it, 

 sides of the thorax white. Legs white, hinder tarsi with two very 

 distinct black rings. 



Anterior wings dirty golden-yellow, having a dirty appearance from 

 the numerous small black atoms scattered over the entire disk of the 

 wing, these atoms occur in different specimens in greater or less num- 

 bers. From the base arises the very fine longitudinal line, which, to- 

 gether with the ground colour, is the characteristic of the species. It 

 remains of equal breadth throughout, and terminates in the fold of the 

 wing. In Pomifoliella, the basal streak is thickened towards the end, 

 transcends the fold of the wing towards the costa shortly before, and 

 soon after ends thereon bluntly, and is also shorter than in the pre- 

 sent species. The opposite spots are placed as in Pomifoliella, also 

 the markings at the apex of the wing are the same, only the black 

 shading between the costal and dorsal spots, which is in Pomifoliella 

 united to the black streak, is wanting. The hinder marginal line is 

 hardly sharper. 



* In the original the word tibiis occurs; an evident misprint.
