KAL'NA AND FLORA OF NORFOLK : LEPIDOPTERA. 
G93 
Eupithecia PIMPIN' ellata. li.-S. I found several larvte of this 
species feeding on Pimpinella mxi/ra;/a neivr 
Wells in 1887, from which the Moths were 
reared last summer. 
„ EXTENSARiA. Frv. ^fy eldest son, M'hen collecting for 
me on the coast in duly, 1887, had the good 
fortune to capture a specimen of this excessively 
rare species — then hardly known, or believed, to 
be Ihitish, By dint of hard work he and Mr. 
Atiiiore secured several more. In 8ej)temher 
larva; Wf;ro found feeding on Artemixia itHiriltiua, 
and from those a fair number of specimens 
were rc-ared last summer. Mr. Atmore then 
again saw the in.sect on the n ing, and larva’ 
were again obtained by both of us, from which 
good hopes lue entertained for next season. 
This is one of the largest and most handsomely 
marked of our Eujiitherin , and is one of the 
most striking and interesting of our recent 
discoveries. 
Moctuo-Bomryces. 
Notodonta torva. Linn. This is an even more startling discovery. 
The only knoM'ii British specimen was re;\red 
by Mr. Frank Norgatc from a larva found by 
him upon White Poplar in Xorfolk. Several 
larva; were found, and supposed to be those of 
N. zirzar, but only one was reared. A", forra 
is a very line Moth. It was formerly reputed 
to be a British species, but was expunged nearly 
thirty years ago fi'om the British list. Its 
restoration now is therefore most gratifying. 
Pykalides. 
Pyrausta ruNiCEALis. W.V. Taken by Mr. Atmore on the 
chalk at Eingstead. 
„ osTRiNALis. Hb. I found this species sparingly last 
.seiison on a wooded hill near Lynn.
