EUROPEAN RECORDS. This species is common in Europe and is mentioned briefly in the writings of many European entomologists. It is reported as com- mon in England and Ireland and throughout Europe, its range ex- tending from Spain to Eastern Asia and as far north as Norway, and it is said to be present in the Orient. One authority states that it occurs from Lapland to middle Italy and from England to Peking. A number of different races have been noted by collectors and are distinguished by varia...tions in the coloration of the wings. When abundant the moths are said to fty in swarms and to migrate long distances. The larvae feed chiefly on poplar and willow, but one report states that oak foliage is eaten in England. Usually the insect is controlled by parasites and natural enemies and is not considered as a pest of first rank. Some authorities state that the eggs ordinarily do not hatch until spring, but occasionally hatching takes place in July or August if the weather is hot, and the small larvae hibernate during the winter.
