For instance, insects liable to become greasy and to verdigris like Sesiidae, etc., are 

 best pinned on Silver Pins which will last much longer than ordinary pins. 



We shall be pleased to send pattern cards on application.

A NATURAL HISTORY 



OF THE 



BRITISH BUTTERFLIES, 



THEIR WORLD-WIDE VARIATION AND DISTRIBUTION. 



By J. W. TUTT, F.E.S., 



The third volume of this important work has now been completed. It is still to be 

 obtained in Is. parts, a price that was fixed to bring, what might otherwise appear to be 

 an expensive book, within the means of every lepidopterist. Only a limited number of 

 copies are made up in parts, and as all parts remaining after the issue of the last are sent 

 to the binder with the other sheets, they are practically unobtainable later. We have 

 received so many applications for Vols. I and II in parts, since they have been completed, 

 and customers do not seem to understand that the parts are only made up in about the 

 numbers likely to be sold at the time and are not easily obtainable afterwards, that we 

 think it advisable to publish this notice. We are always willing to supply any odd 

 copies that we may happen to have in stock (through unequal sales) and wiil always try 

 to make up customers' requirements, but cannot undertake to do so. 



Dear Sir, — 



Please forward me Parts of ^ Natural History of the British Butterflies, 



(tc, at Is. per part, for which I enclose Postal Order . . . .s.
