Family Endrosis fenestrella (Plate XII. , fig. 7, /a larva, ?b pupa). This common species may be observed in almost any house in New Zealand, and is often mistaken for the dreaded " clothes moth" (Tinea tapezella), which it some- what resembles in general appearance. Its larva (Fig. ?a) is very destructive, feeding on dried peas, amongst which it creates great havoc, drilling numerous holes through them and spinning a large number together, in the centre of which the caterpillar undergoes its c...hange into a pupa (Fig. 7b), from which the moth emerges in about a fort- night's time. This insect should be destroyed whenever seen, as there is no doubt that much loss will be caused by its ravages in the future. It also infests bee-hives. THE LEPIDOPTERA. 97 Family TINEID. E.
