PREFACE. 


. 


| Tue object of the present Catalogue is to give a complete 


list of all the genera and species of Crambites and Tortricites 


known to exist in the different collections. The letters a, b, ¢, 


&c., after the species, denote the specimens now contained 
in the British Museum, followed by the habitat and the mode 
in which each of them was obtained, and the absence of 
these letters indicates the species which are desiderata, and 


therefore desirable to be procured for the collection.

| Note.—Some of the exotic genera that are here included in this

_ will combine the European genera in their respective families. The 
_ classification of these tribes has been founded on European species, 
| and will probably soon be much altered by the formation of new 
families of exotic genera.
