Stray Notes on the Macro- Lepidoptera of Dulwich and 

 Neighbourhood. 



By DOUGLAS C. BATE. 



The Eev. Theodore Wood, writing in the 7>o//.s' Ouii Paper, told its 

 readers that they should turn their attention to any branch of 

 entomology rather than Lepidoptera, as " we know pretty well all that 

 there is to be known about them." I do not share this opinion, as I 

 believe there are many things yet unknown, and my reasons for 

 reading this paper are twofold. First, I trust to elicit a mass of 

 information from many of the members present, and secondly, I 

 believe we pay too little attention to our immediate neighbourhoods, 

 and think nothing can be done without going to distant places. 

 London is to some extent played out, but a good many things still 

 exist within its smoke area, and I feel certain thxit solid service is 

 rendered to our successors by reliable records of the capture of 

 common insects, just as records of now extinct forms by our pre- 

 decessors are of value to us. Twelve years or so ago what is now East 

 Dulwich consisted largely of pretty open fields. The bare plot of 

 builder's rubbish, dignified by the name of a garden, extending some 

 thirty by twenty feet from my back door, is my constant collecting 

 ground, its split oak fences being adorned with pieces of virgin cork, 

 on which I put my sugar, and a marvellous number of insects visit it. 



Without further preamble I will proceed to my task, Fieris brassicae,
