For full description of its nature and habit^ 

 see the Twelfth Annual Report of the Entomo-

 a very remarkable form of it last summer. The 

 ground colour is a rich apple green, which, com- 

 bined with the golden yellow of the spots, margin 

 and fringes, makes it an exceedingly attmctive 

 object to contemplate. ^^^- 1^-
