Linnaeus gave this little Moth the fpecific name Bergmanniana, in 

 honour of Prof. Bergmann, a naturalift of diftinguifhed eminence. 

 It is a very pretty InfeS; but, when magnified, its appearance is 

 truly fuperb, the ground colour which is bright yellow, fhewing 

 the orange markings to great advantage, and the metallic fplendour 

 of the burnifhed filver appearing like raifed work above the ftripes 

 or bands of dark brown that crofs the upper wings. 



We have found this Moth a t Highgate. The Caterpillars are 

 yellow, with a ftreak of green down the back ; but the green dis- 

 appears before the laft fkin, in which they are of a pale yellow, 

 without any marks whatever. They feed on white thorn.
