Head, face, and palpi dark bronzy-green. Antenne with the basal 
joint only very slightly thickened, dark bronzy-green, the last seven joints © 
white. Anterior wings shining bronzy-green; cilia greyish-bronze. 
Posterior wings grey, with grey cilia. 
Appears in July among Centawrea nigra, but the perfect insect 
is rarely met with. The larva is more readily found, and is nearly 
full-fed in May; it has a nearly straight cylindrical dark brown 
case, and makes rather transparent pale brownish blotches on the 
leaves of the Centaurea nigra. It has been found in various parts 
of the country, near Liverpool, Dublin, Mickleham, ete.

Head, face, and palpi bronzy-green. Antenne fuscous, with the 
terminal joints white, the basal joint hardly thickened with bronzy-green 
scales. Anterior wings evtremely shining, bronzy-green, with the apex 
coppery ; cilia purplish-grey. Posterior wings grey, with paler cilia. 
Mr. Dale met with this species rather plentifully among trefoil 
flowers, near the shore in the Isle of Portland, and at Charmouth, 
in Dorsetshire, July 11th and 14th, 1831.

Appears in June, and found occasionally in hedges and on 
fences. The cases containing the full-fed larva or pupa are found 
in April or May attached to palings, trunks of trees, ete. ; they 
may be immediately recognized by the rugose projections on the 
upper side, the mouth is turned round nearly at right angles, 
whereby the case is parallel to the surface to which it is attached, 
and is much less easily seen than if it projected, as usual, at an 
angle of about 45°; in other respects the case has no peculiarity, 
bemg rather short, straight, cylindric, but rather attenuated be- 
hind. ‘The larva which, I believe, belongs to this species, feeds
