NOVEMBER 



No butterflies are to be seen this month with the exception of 

 the hybernating species, and even these will not venture on the wing 

 imless the weather is mild and bright for the season. 



Most of the moths met with are also hybernators, bi;t a few 

 species are to be found only at this season, and these should be 

 lookeu for on fences and tree trunks. A few Noctuce may be taken 

 at sugar, and the GeometrcB attracted by lights. 



The only larvEe now existing are hjbernators, and many of these 

 may be met with during yoiu' pupa-digging operations ; but they are 

 best left alone till the spring, as a rule. 



The chief work of the entomologist in November is certainly 

 pupa hunting, and this may be carried on in real earnest whene\er 

 the weather is favourable, following the instructions given in 

 Chapter VII. 



It will be remembered, also, that many of the Lepidopfera pass 

 the winter in the egg state, and search may be made for ova \^hen 

 time permits. 



The November libt, besides some of the hybernating species 

 previously mentioned, include : 



Bombyces.
