1904.) 191 
Triphena subsequa, Hiibn. (consequa, Hiibn. ?) —The figure on Plate 348, Brit. 
Ent., represents the now well-known var. curtisii, Newm., of 7. orbona, Fab., and 
the single specimen in the collection, though in very poor order, is evidently of that 
form. 
Xylomyges conspicillaris, L.—One specimen only. 
Mamestra plasteadi, Curt.— This is apparently an aberration of Hadena cheno- 
podii, ¥., with the markings of fore-wings nearly obsolete. 
Apamea cinereus, Curt., is probably Dyschorista ypsilon, Rott. 
Valeria oleagina, ¥.—A g in very good order, except that the right antenna 
is missing ; set with wings rather drooping backwards. 
Acronycta salicis, Curt.—Four specimens, all of which appear to me to be only 
dark A. rumicis, L.; figured on Plate 136, Brit. Ent. 
Phlogophora empyrea, Hiibn.—One, on a modern silt pin. 
Nonagria evtrema, Hiibn.—One, with abdomen missing ; a small bone-white 
insect without perceptible markings, rather closely resembling Tapinostola bondii, 
Knaggs, of which species there are four specimens, on modern pins, in the Collection. 
Plusia illustris, Fab.—A fairly good ¢, with perfect fringes; set in drooping 
style on a very old pin. P. festuew, L.—A very curious and beantiful variety, the 
ground-colour of the fore-wings dark rich fuscous, with the usual metallic markings 
of a singular greyish-bronze tint. 
Acontia solaris, Hiibn.—One rather worn specimen. 4. caloris, Hiitbn. -A 9, 
in very good order. A. catena, Curt. (Huphasia elegans, Steph.).—One example of 
this beautiful moth, fairly good and bright-looking, but set in very drooping style 
and impaled on an old-fashioned pin of preposterous size; figured, Plate 276, 
Brit. Ent, 
Micra ostrina, Hiibn.—A very good 4, on an old pin. 
“ Acosmetia” venustula, Hiibn.—Two, modern pins. 
Catocala fraxini, L.—A pair, the 9 very poor. C. elocata, Esp.—A ?, in very 
good condition ; figured, plate 217, Brit. Ent. 
Psodos equestrata, F. (alpinata, Hiibn.).—Two specimens in good order, 
apparently ¢, on old pins ; figured, plate 424, Brit. Ent. 
Cleora viduaria, Borkh.—Three fine examples ; two on modern pins. 
Boletobia fuliginaria, L.—One ¢, in fair condition, on a very old pin. 
Fidonia“ purpuraria” is a rather worn example of Acidalia immorata, Hibn. 
Abraxas grossulariata, L.— ‘Two very good varieties, one almost without black 
markings, the other with ground colour entirely yellow. 
Venilia 4-maculata, Hatchett.—A very good specimen of this well known but 
rare form of TV’. maculata; figured, plate 617, Brit. Ent. 
Anaitis preformata, Hiibn. (exsiata, Och.).—A fine 9 example, on an old 
pin ; looks like a very large and well-marked 4. plagiata, L. “Coombe Wood.” 
A. elarkeata, Curt., — Lithostege griseata, Schiff.—A poor specimen on an old 
short pin. 
Phibalapteryx polygrammata, Hiibn.—Five excellent specimens on modern pins. 
Acidalia contiguaria, Hiibn.—Represented by three examples of a pale form of 
A. promutata, Guén. A. degeneraria, Hiibn.— One only, “ Portland, 24—6 ;” 
figured on plate 384, Brit. Ent. 4. subrufata, Haw.—Represented by a good 
example of Phibalapteryx lapidata, Hibn.
