published by Tutt. Account read before Society at meeting [not dated] for the annual report of the 

 entomological section, W.A. Luff, 190(>e[December 31](3):357 & 358 {recorded as Luffia lapidella}. 

 Guernsey - discussed Tutt's description of the genus and redesciption of the species; W.A. Luff, 1901b(4):16 & 

 18. 



Herm - 1 case taken, iv.-viii. 1904, E.D. Marquand; W.A. Luff, 1905a:380. 



Sark - cases noted as common on walls and rocks, 9-14. vii. 1906, W.A. Luff, 1907a(5):192 {recorded as Luffia 

 lapidella, Tutt}. 



Jersey - noted as common on old walls, W.A. Luff, 1909b(5):495 {recorded as Luffia lapidella, Tutt}. 

 Guernsey - \$ bred in 1917, C.N. Burrows, and an attempt of pairing this S with a $ ferchaultella resulted in an 



apparent copulation lasting half and hour, the $ failed to oviposit and died; the failure to lay eggs 



suggested that either the $, or the treatment it received was abnormal, R.S. McDonogh, 1941(7 ):207. 

 Guernsey - the experiment by Burrows in 1917 was repeated in 1935 using SS of lapidella from Guernsey and 



$$ of ferchaultella from England, without any success, the same SS were later succesfully paired 



with $ lapidella from Guernsey, R.S. McDonogh, 1941(7):208. 

 Brecqhou - cases seen, 21. ix. 1967, R.H. Le Pelley, 1975(19):387. 

 Brecqhou - cases seen, 5.viii.l970, R.H. Le Pelley, 1975(19):387.

Sark - specimens seen, 1 6. vii. 1 983, T.N.D. Peet & Ent. Sect., Soc. Guernesiaise {recorded as Luffia lapidella 

 (fercaultella [sic])}; [Societe Sercquaise files]. 



Guernsey - noted as locally common, with the [larvae in] cases browsing on lichens on the granite walls; Peet 

 stated he had never seen the winged form [refering to SS of lapidella}; noted that a collection of 

 mature cases in a jar will suddenly and disconcertingly produce a host of tiny grey cases [from this 

 statement and his note from 1983, it can be inferred that Peet regards ferchaultella as being a form of 

 lapidella, certainly it may be inferred that his comments apply to the parthenogenetic/<?/r/7tfj//te//a, but 

 as he gives no further information, it can equally be inferred that his statement referred to mated $? of 

 lapidella which had layed eggs in their cases and after hatching the 1st instar larvae had constructed 

 their own cases and emerged from the parent cases], T.N.D. Peet, 1988(100):22-23 {recorded as Luffia 

 lapidella).
