On Plate 120 four specimens of this rather variable species are depicted.
Figs. 8 [male] and 10 [female] show the more usual form; Fig. 12 represents
the northern English, blackish var. _fuscata_, Harrison, and Fig. 11 an
intermediate form resulting from a cross-pairing of _fuscata_ [female] with
a southern [male]. Somewhat similar forms to the last have been captured in
Wear Dale, Durham.

The caterpillar is figured on Plate 125, from a  drawing by Mr. A.
Sich. It is described by Fenn as dull yellow, olive green, or greenish
brown; a series of dark grey X-like marks on the back, most distinct on
rings 5-11; the spiracles are white, each placed in a black cloud, and the
spaces between them paler, sometimes yellowish; the last ring is often
brown without marking, and the front rings have a purplish stripe above;
under surface, paler throughout. It feeds, in April and May, as a rule, but
has been found later, on hawthorn, sloe, oak, birch, alder, sallow, etc.,
and may be obtained in the daytime.
