cording to your testimony the 
Gr. tahida, Fab., belongs to a 
species hitherto denominated 
verbasci by authors. We may 
adopt the name ^acobacB, as 
thereis no other. 
Fab., hitherto verbasci, Panzer. 
Marsham. Scarcely to be admitted 
as a distinct species from T.

colouring may be observed in 
other species.

Jacohma), in the beginning of September, 1863.— G. R. W. 
t I took several specimens of this species in Darenth Wood in May and June, 1860, on the leaves 
of a species of Verbascum. Specimens sent to M. Allard were returned to me as the E. lateralis of 
Illiger, but as none of my specimens exhibited the slightest trace of any dark mark on the sides of the 
elytra, as described by Illiger, I was not satisfied with the identiflcatioti, and mentioned my doubts in 
my notes accompanying the collection sent to Herr Kutschera.— G. K. W". IThis is the insect recentlr 
described as T. patruelU by M. AUard.— £. C. R,]
