I find no later reference to these supposed Lepidoptera.

1742. Sendelius. Historia succinorum. Fol. Lipsiæ.

Devotes a chapter (De Erucis, pp. 169-171) to supposed remains of caterpillars and chrysalides in amber. Several forms are figured (pl. 5, figs. 25-28; pl. 6, figs. 1-4), of which it is not impossible that pl. 6, fig. 1, may represent a Papilionid larva; and pl. 6, fig. 4, the chrysalis of a Nymphalid; but the illustrations are wholly insufficient to assert anything of them with confidence.

In a “Tableau général des Arachnides et des Insectes fossiles” he gives on p. 257, the following:
