 Admiral St. John contributes short articles on " Moray Revisited,"

PRACTICAL HINTS FOR THE FIELD LEPIDOPTERIST. By J. W. 

 Tutt, F.G.S. (London: Elliot Stock, April 1901.) Price 55. 6d. 

 net. (interleaved 6s.). 



This useful little brochure is essentially a reprint of a series of 

 papers contributed by the author to the " Entomologist's Record 

 and Journal of Variation," although at the same time a considerable 

 amount of new matter is added. Arranged under the various 

 months, the hints cover all groups of Lepidoptera, and whether the 

 collector pays attention to butterflies alone or to moths also, large 

 or small, he will find in the book exactly the kind of information he 

 requires to ensure success. The collecting of the insects in all 

 stages, the rearing of the larvns, pupa-digging, and other branches 

 of the subject are all dealt with according to the season. A good 

 index would have added much to the value of the book.
