Extract

Stoll figures the moth of two species of Sibine. He also figures two larvæ of Sibine, but, owing to the unfortunate confusion into which his labels must have fallen, they are not attributed to the right imagines, but to two species of Dioptidæ. After Stoll, Sepp also illustrated two species of Sibine, with their larvæ correctly shown. One of Sepp's species is the same as one of Stoll's, the other is different in both larva and moth. This gives three species of the genus known in both larval and mature states, assuming only that the larva which Stoll figures as micilia (228 G.) really belongs to the moth nesea, which I think is probably the case.

* Stoll' so-called larva of nesea is an absurd error. It is a Notodontian with a long yellow horn on joint 6.
