THE OOLOGIST. 



The Butterflies and Moths of Can- 

 ada, with descriptions of their color, 

 size and habit, and the food and met- 

 amorphosis of their larvae. Full in- 

 structions for catching and preserving 

 with a Synopsis of the Butterflies and 

 Moths of Canada. 



This valuable work is out of print 

 and has been regarded as rare for 

 some time — copies selling at $1.50 to 

 $2.50 each, when obtainable. A small 

 lot of new copies was recently "un- 

 earthed" in a publisher's cellar and 

 I obtained the lot — valuable to col- 

 lectors in the United States. Until 

 March 1st will send a copy prepaid 

 for only 66 cents. Money returned by 

 next mail if all sold. 



By Alex. M. Ross, F. R. S. Fully 

 illustrated. Post 8vo, cloth gilt, (pub.
