Farr thirty years ago. He removed to London 
about 1844, and is since deceased, and I have 
no idea what has become of his insects, nor of 
the locality in which this species was captured. 
No recent examples are known. 
Aciptilia galactodactyla. Huh. Norwich, Sparham ; among 
burdock. 
,, PENTADACTYLA. Linn. Generally abundant among 
ConvolDuJus sepium and arvensis. 
Alucitina. 
Alucita poly’dactyla. Hiih. Norwich, Merton, Lynn, Cromer, 
Sparham, Gawston ; among honeysuckle. 
A glance at the foregoing list will make it very evident that, 
while the larger and more conspicuous species have been pretty 
carefully worked uj3, and their localities recorded, the smaller have 
been much neglected — indeed, I have hut two or three lists in 
which they are included. Consequently there is every reason to 
suppose that at some future time there may he considerable addi- 
tions to he made, particularly in the groups of the Tortrices and 
Tinea?. 
An analysis of the list shows that of the Butterflies we have in 
the county forty-eight species, nearly four-fifths of the entire 
British list ; of the Nocturni (Sphinges and Bomhyces of Linn^) 
seventy-four species, or about five-eighths ; and of the Geometry, 
one hundred and ninety, or exactly two-thirds. The same propor- 
tion, or nearly, holds good in the other large group of Macro- 
Lepidoptera, the NoctUce, of which we have two hundred and 
twenty species ; while of the Drepanulse our five species constitute 
five-sixths, and of the Pseudo-Bombyces our nineteen species equal 
five-sevenths. Of the Deltoides we have nine species, about three- 
fifths ; of the P 3 Talides forty-four species, only five-eighths ; and 
of the Crambites fifty-four species, little more than the same pro- 
portion ; while of the Aventise we possess the single European 
representative. Of the Tortrices, however, we have but two 
hundred species, not two-thirds ; and of the Tineina only three 
hundred and sixty species, very little more than one-half; while
