Lepidrvpterous cnptures in Suffolk. — Although I have uot done much this season, 

 a list of the best insects I have taken may interest some of your readers. 



April I7th. In company with Mr. H. Lingwood, of Needham Market, I took 

 a few B. notha in a wood at Barking. Mr. L. took a good many, both before and 

 after this date. 



During the first fortnight in May and August, A. berherata and S. certata 

 occurred freely in a lane near this town, each species being well represented in 

 both broods. 



Early in May, Mr. Lingwood and I took several dozens of F. Umhata on broom 

 growing on the Greeting Hills. 



May 29th. Beat several E. trilinea/i-ia out of beech trees, and one M. alternata 

 out of a fir tree at Dalham. 



June 9th. About a score of H. vm,cana, several E. russula, M. a/rtemis, and D. 

 falcula, at Tuddonham ; and, about the same time, some two dozen H. serena, in 

 very fine condition, at rest on trees and palings near Bury. 



July 3rd. One E. fasciaria, several E. russula and A, porphyrea, on Ilerming- 

 fleet Common. 



July 12th. Several I. vernaria at Hardwick, 



July 21st. Plenty of N. despecta, P. purpuralis, a few U. aworaria, and P. 

 cenecb, at Tuddenham. 



At the end of August, a dozen larvae of N. dromeda/i^ius, one of A. leporina, and 

 several of O. papilionaria, at Tuddenham. 



A very kind non-entomological friend, Mr. T. G. Hinnell, brought from 

 the Sandhills at Yarmouth, six A. prcecox, several A. valUgera, and lots of A. 

 cursoma, the result of three hours' search. At the end of July, a very good 

 specimen of T. suhsequa flew to a lamp in his house, which is nearly in the middle 

 of this town ; this, also, he added to my collection. 



Lately I have taken very little, beyond C. spartiata in abundance at Ickling- 

 hara, and, by digging there, I have obtained a few pup^ of N. dictcva and P.pialpina.
