Occurs at Hamilton, Cambridge, Christchurch, Ashburton, and at the foot of Mount Hutt, from January to March, generally in abundance; it is probably universally distributed. Prof. Zeller kindly forwarded to me his unpublished figures of the specimens from which his descriptions quoted above were taken, enabling me to decide that they were all truly referable to varieties of this species. 12. Cr. flexuosellus, Dbld. (Crambus flexuosellus, Dbld., Dieff. New Zealand, Vol. II., 289; Feld., Reise der Novara, Pl. CXXXVII., 32.) Male, Female.—20–24 mm. Head and palpi rather dark ochreous-fuscous; labial palpi moderate, white beneath. Antennæ fuscous-grey. Thorax ochreous grey or light greyish-fuscous. Abdomen whitish-grey-ochreous. Legs whitish-ochreous, more or less wholly suffused with dark fuscous. Forewings moderate, somewhat dilated posteriorly, costa gently arched, very slightly sinuate in middle, apex obtuse, hindmargin little oblique, slightly sinuate; rather light greyish-fuscous, sprinkled with dark fuscous, costal space above white streak dark fuscous; a well-defined straight moderately broad longitudinal white streak above middle from base to hindmargin immediately beneath apex, upper edge very near costa on basal ⅖, thence twice sinuate to apex, lower edge twice irregularly dentate beyond middle; an indistinct dark spot on lower edge before middle, and a dark fuscous spot in first indentation, indicating first transverse line; second transverse line tolerably distinct, dark fuscous, closely but indistinctly dentate, from costa at ¾ to inner margin at ⅘, angulated outwards on lower edge of white streak, obsolete on costa, where it is often followed by a suffused ochreous mark; a slender dark fuscous hindmarginal line; three or four minute black dots on hindmargin below middle: cilia shining-grey, with a dark-grey line near base, and a white basal line on upper half, produced into a white bar at apex. Hindwings dull whitish-ochreous, apex fuscous-grey, hindmargin more or less suffused with light fuscous-grey; cilia whitish-ochreous, with two faint grey lines. Very distinct by the ochreous-fuscous head and palpi, the position of the white streak above middle, and the dark fuscous costal space. Occurs at Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin, and probably everywhere, abundantly from December to April. 13. Cr. tuhualis, Feld. (Crambus tuhualis, Feld., Reise der Novara, Pl. CXXXVII., 18; Crambus vulgaris, Butl., Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond., 1877, 400, Pl. XLIII., 7.) Male, female.—20–25 mm. Head brownish-ochreous or fuscous. Palpi greyish fuscous or dark fuscous, labial palpi moderate, beneath whitish.
