Extract

During the spring of 1916, while making observations from an economic point of view on the Holly Tortrix Moth, Eudemis nœvana (Hb.), I found that, owing to the transparency of the egg and its flattened form, the development could be followed in the living egg in a general way with unusual clearness.

Investigations have been carried out on the embryology of about eighteen species of Lepidoptera, but as far as I am aware no account has been published of the embryology of the Tortricidæ.
