THE entomologist’s lecord. 
The following changes in nomenclature have been proposed by 
M. Sven Lampa, and are now used extensively by Scandinavian and 
Continental lepidopterists ; although, I believe, not yet brought to the 
notice of scientific British lepidopterists : — 
Lyc(E?m cego 7 i, Auct., replaced by argus, L. ; argus by argyrognomon, 
Bergstr. ; Sesia asiliformis^ Rott., by vespiforuiis, L. ; Hepialus velleda, 
Hb., by fusco-nebulosa, De Geer (1778); Cymatophora or^ F., by ypsilon- 
grcecujji^ Goze (1781); Moma orion^ Esp,, by alpium^ Osbeck (1778);

The following varieties have also been 'described by M. Lampa: — 
Argy 7 i 7 tis aglaia ab. aberraTis ; Sphinx pinastri 2ib. fasciatu ; Sarrothripa 
imdulana ab. glaucana ; Bisulcia ligustri ab. sandevalli (this would 
appear to be the var. coronula^ of Haworth) ; Agrotis {Noctua) brunnea 
ab. 7 iigricans ] A. {Noctua) plecta ab. andersso 7 ii\ Tceniocaf 7 ipa mcerta 
ab. pallida-, Scopeloso 77 ia satellitia ab. brunnea-, A 7 iarta mela 7 iopa ab. 
7 vistrd 77 ii -, A 7 igerona prunaria ab. spa 7 ibergi -, Hibernia defoliaria ab. 
hol>ngre 7 ii ; Fsodos coracina ab. -wahlbergi ; Lythria purpuraria ab. 
77ievesi-, Lobophora halterata dh. rudolphii -, Cidaria dotata 2ib. joha 7 iso 7 ti 
(a beautiful specimen of this var “ much shaded with grey-brown ” was 
taken at light in Wicken last July); C. {Core 77 iia) quadrifasciaria w. 
thedenii. 
The following have also been described ; — Asphalia fiavicornis var. 
Jhin 77 iarchia, Schoy., 1881, E 7 it. 2 'id. p. 121 (this will probably replace 
scotica, Stdgr.). Arsilonche albovenosa, Goze, v. 77 iurina^ Auriv., 1880, p. 
37, V. albida, Auriv., 1880, p. 38 (this latter will probably replace var. 
argeniea, Tutt, British Noctuce, i., p. 28). — Ento 7 nologisk Tidskrift, 
1885, pp. 212-213.

Scio 77 iyza dubia. Fin., captured at Oxshott, August i6th, 1890, and 
Lynton, June 17th, 1883 (G. H. Verrall, Ento 7 n., xxiv., p. 235). 
Oxycera ter 77 iuiata^ Mg., possibly British, but the record, l.c. = Pachy- 
gasier Itachii, Curt. Pipu 7 iculus ge 7 iiculatus, Isig. (p 'Qxibsb). Pepizella 
a7i7iulata^ Mcq., the record l.c. — P. Jiavitarsis ? • Clidogastra pu/ictipes^ 
Mg., the specimen recorded l.c. as this species does not belong to the 
genus. Oxyphora ar 7 iicce, Fin. = O. 7 niliaria, Schrk. Sapro 77 iyza 
plaiycephala, Lw., the record l.c. is erroneous, it does not belong to 
Sapro 77 iyzidce. Chlorops hypostig 77 ia, the record l.c. is erroneous, the 
specimen does not belong to Chloropidce. Pteropcecilia laTned^ not yet
