Sp. 15. Andereggiella, Fischer von Roslerstamm. 



CEcophora Andereggiella, F-v-R., pi. 74, f. 2, S. 209. Dup. xi. 469, pi. 305, f. 9. 



Argyresthia Andereggiella, Zeller, Linn. Ent. ii. 241. 



Tinea I. V-ella, Haworth, Lep. Brit. 570, 32. 



Argyrosetia I. V-ella, Steph. Illust. iv. 254. Wood's fig. 1313. 



Expansion of the wings 5 — b\ lines. Head white. Face white. Palpi white. 

 Antennae white, annulated with dark fuscous. Thorax white. Abdomen fuscous. 

 Legs whitish. Tarsi whitish, spotted with fuscous. Anterior wings brilliant white, 

 with the base of the costa yellowish ; about the middle of the inner margin arises a 

 broad tawny-brown fascia; this narrows a little after leaving the inner margin, and 

 then again expands, becoming rather furcate ; the point towards the base is continued 

 no further, and therefore does not reach the costa, but towards the apex it is continued 

 in an oblique direction till it reaches the costa (in some specimens this does not extend 

 to the costa) ; where this touches the costa (or in those specimens where it does not, 

 where it would if produced) there is a distinct tawny-brown spot, and a slender fascia 

 arising from it goes to the anal angle, but a little before it reaches the angle there is a 

 branch from it to the apex of the wing, in which at the extreme apex is a white spot : 

 cilia tawny-brown, paler on the inner margin. Posterior wings purplish fuscous, with 

 paler cilia. 



This species has occurred at West Wickham, and likewise at Darenth and Lower 

 Epping Forest, I believe. In Hainault Forest, last July and August, a considerable 

 number were taken from the wild apple. On the Continent this has only occurred in 

 the Valais, near Brieg, in July, among hazels, where it was taken by Anderegg. 



I. V-ella is the older name, but of doubtful Latinity.

Expansion of the wings 5 — 5^ lines. Head white. Face white. Palpi white. 

 Antenna? white, annulated with dark fuscous. Thorax white. Abdomen fuscous. 

 Legs pale. Tarsi pale, spotted with fuscous. Anterior wings white, the costal half 

 scattered throughout with numerous dark fuscous short transverse streaks ; on the in- 

 ner margin, rather beyond the middle of the wing, arises a curved dark fuscous fascia, 

 terminating on the costa, and at the anal angle arises another, terminating in the 

 apex of the wing ; there are generally some fuscous spots connecting these two fascia?, 

 and the apical one is connected with the costa by several fuscous streaks, the one near-
