ENNOMOS MAGNARIUS, GUENEE. 



Every winter the curious egg deposits of the Notch-wing, Ennojnos 

 magfiaritis, Gn., are sent in by fruit-growers to know what they are- 

 These eggs are very characteristic, and are like those of many other 

 geometrid moths, somewhat quadrate or rounded oblong in shape. They 

 are steely-gray in colour, and white at one end ; about i mm. in length 

 by half mm. wide, and flattened above. These eggs are laid in straight 

 or curved lines, the eggs touching at the sides, and as a rule about 20 in 

 a row. A female which had freshly emerged from the cocoon was found 

 in copulation and put in a box with her mate undisturbed. During the 

 following two days she laid 632 eggs. Although kept in the box 

 for another three or four days, no more eggs were laid.
