The larvae, or life-histories *, of the following species are de- 
scribed : — 
Acid ALIA mancuniata by Buckler (Ent. M. Mag. ii. p. 189), A. svbsenceata by 
G. Gibson (/. e. p. 23G), A. ornata by Ilellins (Ent. M. Mag. iii. p. 44), A. con-

by Gregson (/. c. pp. 168-lGl) and A.ficmata by Newman {1. c. pp. 1G1-1G2), 
SconiA dealhata by Ilellins (Ent. M. Mag. ii. p. 190) and by Newman * 
(Entom. iii. pp. 141-143), Emmelesia albulata by Ilellins (Entom. M. Mag. 
ii. p. 2G1) : also by Newman tlie larv£e of Lobophora viretata (Entom. iii. pp. 
15-lG), Tephrosia cei'vinaria (/. c. pp. lG-17), Pericallia syringaria (1. c. pp. 
81-82), Camptogramma trilineata (/. c. pp. 82-83), Thera obeliscata (/. c. p. 83), 
^Metrocanpa margaritata {1. c. pp. 94-95), Ilemithea thymiaria {I, c. pp. 95- 
9G), Larentia multistrigata (/. c. p. 113), and Scotosia ctirtata (/. c. pp. 113-114). 
Of the following, life-histories are given : — Ypsipetes ehdaria by Newman 
{l.c. pp. 9G-97), Cidaria sagittata by Newman (/. c. pp. 145-14G), Coremia 
ferriigata by Newman (/. c. pp. 143-145), Aplasia ononaria by Newman (/. c. 
pp. 1G2-1G3), and JEupithecia rectangulata by Gregson (/. c. p. 181). 
llogenhofer (Verb, zool.-bot. Ges. in Wien, xvi. p. 1000) refers to the fol- 
lowing as Austrian species of this family : — JEugonia effractaria (Frey) ; Ci- 
daria lugdunaria (Il.-Sch.), lapidata (Iliibn.), and infidaria (Laharpe) j and 
Eupithecia pygmceata (Hiibn.). 
Anthometra concoloraria (Led.). Bemarks on the occurrence of this species 
in France, and its systematic position, by Mabille, Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 18GG, 
pp. li-lii. 
Goossens records the occurrence of Steganiapermutaria, Cheimatobia boreata, 
Thera Jirmata, and Phibalapteryx aquata near Paris. Bull. Soc. Ent. Fr. 
1806, p. XV. 
'Thera obeliscata and 'T. variata. Doubleday maintains the specific distinct- 
ness of these two forms. Entomologist, iii. p. 84. 
Gregson & Newman (Entom. iii. pp. 160-161) discuss the specific value 
of the so-called species Acidalia subsericeata (Haw.) and A. mancuniata 
(Knaggs), for which Gregson proposes the new name A. veterata. Knaggs 
(Ent. Ann. 1867, pp. 134-135) seems to think that all the forms are iden- 
tical. 
Tephrosia crepuscularia. A dark variety of this species occurring in Wales 
is noticed by Llewelyn, Ent. M. Mag. iii. p. 20. 
* The species marked with an asterisk are those of which the history is 
given.
