Eupithecia subciliata. 

 Plate CXXXIV, fig. 5. 



One larva from a batch of eggs laid by a female 

 sent by Mr. John Sang, of Darlington, to the Rev. H. 

 Harpur-Crewe, and this, the only surviving larva of 

 thirteen, arrived on the 3rd of May, 1872, feeding 

 on maple, having been reared on this food from 

 the egg. 



The larva was half an inch long, and stout in 

 proportion, in its form resembling that of E. tenuiata. 

 At this time it is of a tender green, matching exactly 

 that of the young leaves of the maple. It is rather 

 sluggish, and rests generally with its smallish head 

 almost withdrawn into the second segment, which is 

 then tucked under after the manner of Lobophora 

 joolycommata. The ninth segment is perhaps the 

 thickest, and from thence to the anal extremity it 

 tapers just a little, and also from the fourth to the 

 head, which is much smaller than the second. The 

 segments have four transverse wrinkles on the hinder 

 half of each of them. At this green stage, in its last 

 skin, the dorsal stripe is of a very dark green, thick 

 at the segmental divisions, but fading and attenuating 

 towards the middle of each segment. The subdorsal 

 region is defined by the rather concave border of a 

 pale triangular mark at the fore part of the segment, 

 attenuating to a mere line at the hinder part, and a 

 tubercular dot of the green ground colour is seen on 

 the paler triangular mark. On the side a little below 

 is a paler short and oblique streak at the beginning 

 of each segment, but it soon vanishes in the ground 

 colour. Beneath this along the spiracular region is a 

 broader stripe of paler, and inflated with a slight
