numbers of neogama, vidua, palaogama, habilis, residua, retecta, 

 and a few innubens, all ragged. Moths were mostly at the bottom 

 of the tree trunks. Everything hard to approach. 



August 8th, 95° — dry. Catocalae fairly common, but out of 

 date. No new species. Took five viduata. Two were ragged 

 and one was a female, the second of the year. Captured three 

 fine vidua, one lacrymosa, two habilis, one phalanga, one flebilis 

 one lucetta. The last two were somewhat damaged. Took a 

 brand-new neogama and a new cara. 



Aug. 12th — Warm, clear, woods dry and bare. No water in 

 the creek. Catocalse not numerous. Took three viduata, four 

 lacrymosa, six vidua, retecta, habilis. Saw neogama, palceogama, 

 innubens one nebulosa, cara, residua and angusi. 



Aug. 14th — Imagos of Callidryas eubule, Terias lisa and 

 Nathalis iola fairly common. 



Aug. 15t1i — The sun rose with the thermometer at 56°. Tem- 

 perature warmed up to 90° by mid-afternoon. Saw few Catocalae 

 in the woods. Took one viduata, one lacrymosa and one neogama. 

 Saw a number of lacrymosa, but everything was scary and went 

 "sky-high" when approached. 



On August 19th Miss Gertrude Wallace took a fine fresh 

 piatrix on a window screen. 



August 26th— 66° at 7 a.m., 82° at noon. Up "Catocala. 

 hollow" in the afternoon and in three hours saw but 29 moths,, 

 three habilis, two retecta, one innubens, two neogama, and the rest 

 vidua. Moths high on the trees and on the sunny side. 



The senior author did not see a single specimen of Catocala 

 robinsoni in 1914, and this is the more surprising, as moths of that 

 species were so plentiful in August and September, 1913. 



Aug. 30th — Temperature nearly 90°. In the woods in the 

 afternoon found moths few, and none of those taken were even 

 passable specimens. Captured one lacrymosa, one neogama, three 

 habilis, two vidua and one scintillans. 



Sept. 6th — Saw a few vidua one neogama, and one lacrymosa. 



Sept. 19th — Saw two vidua and one palceogama, but all were 

 ragged. 



On Oct. 5th and 11th took five new specimens of Junonia
