Freyor remarks " It may at once be seen, by comparison, that Euryale is very 
distinct from Ligea both in sizo and coloration, and Euryale can scarcely be a 
modification of Ligea. Particularly since the female examples differ considerably 
on the under-side of the hind-wings, whilst the female of Ligea never has so 
conspicuous a band as that of Euryale." The female of Euryale has a broad 
yellowish band, such as exists in some females of Blandina. — Arthur G. Butler, 
Zool. Dept., Brit. Mus., 2Srd October, 1867. 
%* No person has, as yet, been able to confirm the assertion that Ligea, or a 
species allied thereto, occurs in the Isle of Arran ; and the above note by Mr. Butler 
renders it doubly probable that some error occasioned the introduction of Ligea 
into our lists. — Eds. 
Phycis adelphella hred. — I took a larva, which turns out to be of this species, 
about five miles from Worcester, July 18th, 1859, feeding between leaves of aspen, 
of which I find the following description in my journal : — " Olive, with darker 
stripes, those above spiracular line broadest ; spiracular line paler ; head and 
shield dark olive, clouded with black; pale hairs." The pupa is entered aa 
" formed between leaf and box, in a strong white web ; long, light brown, a shining, 
dark obtuse swelling at the tip." The perfect insect emerged June 24th of the 
following year." I am indebted to Mr. Tompkins for detecting this species in my 
collection, as well as a new species of Tineina which I had overlooked. — E. Hokton, 
Powick, Worcester, November 1st, 1867. 
Occurrence of Tpsolophus ustulellus, Fab., a Lepidopteron new to Britain. — I 
have sent to Mr. Stainton two examples of the new species of Tineina mentioned 
in the above notice, which he informs me are Tpsolophus ustulellus. Fab., a species 
new to Britain ; and I now send a few words about their capture. The finest 
was taken, with another as fine, about eight miles from here, May 29th, 1864, 
sunning itself on lime leaves. I took Roeslerstaynmia Erxlehella at the same time. 
The worn specimen was taken close at home in 1865 — I forget the time of year, but 
I know that I beat it out of hazel. There are no lime trees near the place that 
I know of. — Id. 
Capture of Tysolnphus ustxdellus. — An example of this new species, of which 
I believe Mr. Horton has sent an account for publication in the Ent. Mo. Magazine, 
was captured by myself six years ago ; it is, so far as I know, the first that has been 
taken in this country : it is in fine and perfect condition. Neither Mr. Horton nor 
I could determine the species at the time. 
A year or two afterwards Mr. Horton captured two or three, and very lately 
Mr. Tompkins, who was payiug me a visit, called upon Mr, Horton, and pointed 
out that the insect was new to our lists. — Abraham Edmunds, Cemetery House, 
Astwood Eoad, Woi-cester, November ISth, 1867. 
Occurrence of Ebulea catalaxmalis, Bup., a species of Lepidoptera new to Britain. — 
The captor, Mr. W. C. Boyd, writes to me as follows : — 
" I took it in our garden at Cheshunt, September 18th, flying over a flower
