We cannot felecT: more pleafing objects for microfcoplcal mveftiga- 

 tion, than thofe two minute moths, efpecially the firft; the markings 

 appear rather confufed without the affiftar.ce of glaffes, but a lens of 

 a very fmall power completely developes it of this imaginary obfcu- 

 rity, and difplays an elegance fufEdent to recommend it to our atten- 

 tion; but independent of fuch confideration, it will, it is prefumed, be 

 confidered as a material advantage to the defcription annexed, to ac- 

 company the figure of the natural fize with a microfcopical reprefen- 

 tation ; not to enforce that fuch addition is indifpenfibly neceflary, but 

 when moths like the prefent offer, whofe marks, though beautiful, 

 appear confufed, it will certainly much affift to its neceffary informa- 

 tion ; as well as in future to determine the fpecies itfelf.
