Show 394 ON LEPIDOPTERA FROM WESTERN INDIA. [June 29, 173. ClDlRIA ALBIGIRATA ? Cidaria albiyirata, Kollar in Hiigel's Kaschm. iv. 2, p. 489 (1848). Murree, 12th August, 1885. This agrees tolerably closely with Kollar's description, but his statement that it belongs to the neighbourhood of Cidaria prunata and sufflumata is misleading, if this be his species, since it is closely allied to the European C. picala, and decidedly more closely than to either of the above-mentioned insects; it occurs also in Afghanistan. 174.
