suggesting a natural hybrid between Z,. Jonicerae and Z.filipeiuhilae ; also series 

 of the large form of Z.Ji/ipp7idul(ie, occA\rnu<^ abundantly on liox Hill, in wliicli 

 the sixth spot was very weak and the first to disappear from Avear, together 

 with an example of Z. anceps, recently described by MM. Charles Oberthur, 

 from H\eres, and a short series of Z. trifolii albiana Qihihw from the same 

 locality. Mr. G. T. Talbot brought a number of specimens of Eiiploea from 

 the Joicey collection, illustrating a supposed black and white mimetic com- 

 bination in the Tenimber I.-lands, Fiji, and Australia ; and a white-banded 

 group in the Key and Aru Islands. Mr. Adkin exhibited an example of the moth 

 Marijarodes unioncdis taken at sugar near Arlington, Sussex, a native of 

 southern countries, and probably a migrant to our shores. INIr. II. J. 

 Douisthorpe exhibited strings of the so-called " ground pearls," a Coccid (prob- 

 ably Margaruclcs forinicarum Guilding), from Jamaica, and two examples 

 of a species of C'iomis, new to science, swept near Lake Windermere a few 

 years since by the llev. Canon Theodore Wood. Mr. W, J. Pendlebury showed 

 an unusually dark form of the Carabid beetle Anchomeims dorsalis taken in 

 Brecon, and a variety of tJie mosquito Tlteuhaldia anniilata first found in INleso- 

 })otamia and described by Capt. Barraud, IJ.A.M.U. ; the specimen exhibited 

 being from Earl's (Jourt, October 27th, 1920, and given the varietal name (in 

 MS.) of subochreu Edwards. Mr. W. G. Sheldon exhibited a series of 243 bred 

 specimens of Fc rone a hastlana L. from Sutherlaudshire, Wicken Feu, the Isle 

 of Wight, and the coast of Lancashire; the series included most of named 

 forms and a number of unnamed forms. Dr. K. Jordan exhibited Misurc/ina 

 liicta from Madagascar, leaiarliable for its very strongly clavate antenmie and 

 the development of a stridulating organ ; he corapaved the process with that 

 occurring in other species of yl//«r«,s^/fZ«e and Noetnidae- he said that Misur- 

 (j'ma recalled Vtmpliuiostola Strand (1909), placed by the author with the 

 Castnlidae, but which would on re-examination probably turn out to be 

 Agaristid also.
