and forming the hinder white fascia; there are also a few 
towards the hinder margin ; the cilia are fuscous. The pos¬ 
terior wings are rather pale fuscous, thus much darker than 
the whitish grey posterior wings of E. ambigualis. 
EUDOREA GRACILALIS, Doubleday, n. sp.; taken 
by Mr. Weaver, in Scotland ; expands 9—10 lines; not very 
nearly allied to any of our known species : the anterior wings 
have a peculiarly delicate appearance; they are very narrow 
at the base, gradually widening to a little before the apex; ^ 
the hinder fascia runs obliquely inwards from the costa, as 
m E. lineolea; before the hinder margin are several black 
spots; cilia pale fuscous, with paler patches; the posterior 
wings are pale greyish-fuscous, with paler cilia. 
CRAMBUS CASSENTINIELLUS, Mann; a single 
specimen of this species, from the collection of Mr. Hem- 
wings, was exhibited at the October meeting of the Entomo- 
iogical Society; it was taken on the downs near Brighton, 
a few years back. 
The species is very closely allied to C. rorellus , and like 
Jt is at once distinguished from C. chrysonuchellus by the 
greater length of the palpi; the brighter markings of the 
anterior wings also readily distinguish it from C. chryso¬ 
nuchellus. The species is described by Zeller in the Ent. 
Zeitung, 1849, page 312. 
RETIN IA RESINELLA, Linn.; bred freely from larva 
collected in Perthshire last summer, by Mr. Bouchard. The 
larva feeds in autumn and spring, in the resinous exudations 
^hich it causes on the twigs of Pinus sylvestris. The per- 
fect insect is allied to R . pinivorana, but the anterior wings 
are darker, without the reddish tinge of pinivorana , and 
considerably broader. 
GELECHIA VISCARIELLA, Logan, n. sp.; bred by 
Logan from larvae, feeding in April and May, on the 
bli °ots of Lychnis viscaria ,* it is closely allied to Gr. fra-
