Description |
Thomas Vernon Wollaston published this drawing in his book ‘Insecta Maderensia’ in 1854. In the book he thanks Westwood for providing the illustrations, ‘Particularly, however, would I draw attention to the valuable help which I have received from J. O. Westwood, Esq., whose pencil has been so elaborately employed in the figures which I am thus enabled to attach, and by whom many of the minutest of the dissections were accomplished, — with a degree of delicacy, moreover, to which I did not myself at the commencement of this Work (though I have since succeeded in anatomizing the larger portion of them, likewise) lay claim.’ Wollaston wrote the following about this species: ‘It is decidedly scarce; though, at the same time, widely distributed over the island. Thus, I have taken it, during the winter months, from under stones, towards the upper extremity of the Ribeiro de Santa Luzia,—principally in grassy spots by the edges of the stream : and in the summer of 1850 I captured it at the Lombo dos Pecegueiros, and from beneath the dead, loosely-attached bark of trees in the upland region of the Fanal. I have also brushed it from off vegetation in the elevated district of the Cruzinhas ; and, on one occasion (whilst searching for Pupa concinna), at the extreme head of the Ribeiro de Joao Delgada, I met with it in tolerable abundance, under lichen on the exposed faces of the rocks : and it has been detected by the Rev. R. T. Lowe at the Ribeiro Frio.’ |
