324 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



CoLiAS EDUSA IN Kent. — I captured a fine male specimen of 

 C. eclusa on September 16th, near Bexley. Although a thorough 

 search was made throughout the district, no other example of the 

 species was seen. — L. W. Newman ; Bexley, Kent. 



CoLiAs EDUSA IN EssEX. — A single specimen of C. edusa was 

 noticed flying swiftly along a lane here late in August. — W. H. 

 Harwood ; 94, Station Eoad, Colchester. 



CoLiAS EDUSA IN CORNWALL. — One example of C. edusa was seen, 

 flying swiftly, in the Penzance district during late August. — G. B. 

 Kershaw ; West Wickham, Kent. 



COLIAS HYALE AND SpHINX CONVOLVULI IN KeNT. — On x\ugUSt 



23rd I found a somewhat worn specimen of S. convoJvuli at rest on 

 a fence between the North Foreland lighthouse and the edge of the 

 cliff. On August 10th I took a magnificent female C. hyale, in a 

 lucerne field near Margate ; four or five other specimens were seen 

 on subsequent days. — F. H. Stallman ; 6, Maley Avenue, West 

 Norwood, S.E. 



CoLiAs EDUSA AND Sphinx CONVOLVULI AT SciLLY. — ^ Of butter- 

 flies at Scilly in August I saw Pieris brassicce, P. rapes, P. napi, 

 Colias edusa (2), Gonepteryx rhanmi (3), Vanessa urticcB, V. atalanta, 

 V. cardui, Epinephele ianira, and Lyccena icarus. Of these, G. rhamni 

 is new to me in the locality. Of moths the total number of species 

 would not much exceed the butterflies. Sugar was a comparative 

 failure, and the only moth other than the commonest was Sphinx 

 convolvuli. — B. W. Adkin ; 8, Hope Park, Bromley, Kent. 



Argynnis lathonia in Kent.— It will probably be of interest 

 that I should record the capture, on the cliff' at St. Margaret's Bay, 

 Kent, on iVugust 13th, 1911, of a very fair specimen of A. lathonia 

 (female). — I. C. Gunton ; 20, Sheflield Terrace, Campden Hill, W., 

 August 9th, 1911. 



Vanessa antiopa at Berkhamsted, Herts. — Mr. John Trask, 

 one of the masters at Berkhamsted School, called on me some three 

 weeks ago, stating he had, that day, seen a fine specimen of this 

 insect near Ashley Green, but, having no net, was unable to catch 

 it. — Arthur J. Rose ; " Glanmor," Berkhamsted, September 19th, 

 1911. 



Vanessa antiopa in Essex. — Two schoolboys, named L. Taylor 

 and M. Green, who have been spending their holidays at Clacton, 

 captured a good specimen of this insect at Bradwell-on-Sea on 

 August 25th. I have seen this specimen, which is a male in good 

 condition but somewhat damaged on the left fore wing. — Arthur J. 

 Rose. 



Vanessa antiopa in the Isle op Wight. — I write to record the 

 occurrence here, at Brading, on August 17th last, of a very fine speci- 

 men of Vanessa antiopa. It was caught while resting on some 

 flowers in the vicarage garden, and was brought to me. It is now in 

 my collec<"ion. I believe another was seen in the neighbourhood
