On July 27th, 1870, I captured a single specimen of this rare species upon the embankment of one of the drains at Ranworth Fen. So far as I know no other specimen has ever been taken in Norfolk, or indeed in any part of the United Kingdom except on the extreme south coast ; and the occurrence of this single ex- ample, which I still possess, is to me inexplicable Pionea margaritalis, Fab. Recorded at Beach- amwell by Stephens and Curtis, but I know of no recent captures here — stramentalis, Hb. Very widely distribu- ted in fens and marshes Margarodes unionalis, Hb. A single specimen of this rarity was captured at Yarmouth on June 15th, 1880, by Mrs. Wheeler. It was sitting upon a grass-culm on the sandhills. It has been placed by Dr. F. D. Wheeler in my collection Spilodes sticticalis, Linn. Merton, Thetford, Brandon, Beachamwell, Hunstanton ; rather common in the ' Breck ' district 152
