Transcription Notes:
Great attempt! Stelfox is hard but he does get easier with practice. I've done a spreadsheet of common names used in his fieldbooks. See https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E_Zc6xt1giFN2mfBuByQ7kpkW1_nLCcFaO_bBm8zjEE/edit Hope it helps. -@siobhanleachman
Thanks, I've been using an archive.org version of "A Guide to an Arrangement of British Insects" by John Curtis, 1837. It has many of the Stelfox species.
