CLEORA GLABRARIA. 17 
but these could scarcely be called cocoons, for when 
looking about a week afterwards, on the 28th, for the 
pupe, two of them rolled out into my hand on taking 
up the moss, so little coherence had these slightly 
made puparia. 
Of the remaining four larvee, two pupated as above 
described, and two. proved to be ichneumoned, one of 
these dying quite rigid, and the other lingering on, 
attached to the cocoon of its parasite, for some time 
after the pupze had disclosed the moths, which proved 
fine specimens, appearing from July 11th to 21st. 
The full-grown larva is nearly an inch in length, 
moderately slender, and of about uniform substance 
throughout ; the head, a trifle less than the second seg- 
ment, is a little flattened in front; the segments of 
the body very well defined, the thoracic ones as usual, 
each of the others having a wrinkle across the back at 
the distance of one-third from the beginning, and 
three others near the end ; the anterior legs developed 
in gradation, the shortest pair in front, the second 
pair a little longer, and the third pair the longest; the 
ventral and anal pairs well developed. 
In colour the head is pale greenish-white in front, 
light glaucous-green at the sides, reticulated with 
whitish ; near the crown, on each lobe, is a black 
streak undulating down to the antennal papillus, and 
bounding the whiter face from the greener side of the 
head; above the mouth is a triangular mark of 
blackish-brown atoms; the ground colour of the body 
generally is a pale blue-green, that of the back has a 
more lively green tinge, though so pale as to be a 
ereenish-white ; through the back can be distinguished 
the dorsal line by its bluer tinge, besides a small 
streak on either side of it anteriorly on each segment 
excepting the thoracic, which are broadly divided with 
it; but the chief feature of the back is the row of black 
spots, viz. one rather oblong spot on the whitest 
portion on each thoracic segment, and on the others 
an oblong spot just at the beginnimg, and another
