Gift of Butterflies to Leeds University. — The University 

 of Leeds has recently received a valuable addition to its scientific 

 collections in the presentation by Mrs. A. H. Clarke, of Earl's Court, 

 of the collection of Continental and Exotic Macro-Lepidoptera made 

 by her late husband, who was one of the Senior Fellows of the 

 Entomological Society, and, up to a few years of his death in 1911, a 

 frequent contributor to the ' Entomologist's Eecord.' Mr. Clarke's 

 pursuit of entomology was a lifelong recreation in the intervals of a 

 busy City career. In earlier years he was an active butterfly hunter, 

 both in England and upon his holiday tours abroad, and the speci- 

 mens so acquired formed the basis of his British and European 

 collections, the latter of which (containing some 6500 specimens) is 

 included in Mrs. Clarke's donation to the University. Mr. Clarke 

 also got together, by judicious purchases extended over many years, 

 one of the most representative collections of exotic butterflies in the 

 possession of any amateur. This part of the collection consists of 

 nearly 6000 specimens from all parts of the world, and is particularly 

 valuable as a reference collection, not merely from the number and 

 careful selection of the forms represented (some being of great 

 rarity), but from the perfect condition and beauty of the specimens 

 themselves. The whole donation enriches the entomological resources 

 of the University by over 12,000 specimens, all carefully set, arranged 

 and labelled; and to this Mrs. Clarke has generously added her 

 husband's working, library of entomological literature, itself a present 

 of great value and utility. The University authorities wish it to be 

 known, in conformity with Mrs. Clarke's desires, that, after the 

 immediate work of arranging and cataloguing has been concluded, the 

 collections will be available for reference by entomologists generally 

 upon apphcation to the Professor of Zoology at the University. 



Phryxus livornica at Clifton. — It may be of interest to record 

 that a fine male Phryxus livornica was captured by Mr. Cyril H. 

 Walker, F.E.C.S., on June 2nd last. It was hovering over flowers 

 in his garden in Oakfield Eoad, Clifton.— Geo. C. Griffiths ; Pen- 

 hurst, 3, Leigh Eoad, Clifton, Bristol. 



Colias edusa near Colchester. — On June 14th I saw a speci- 

 men of Colias edusa flying swiftly just outside Wivenhoe Station 

 near here. — B. S. Harwood; 62, Station Eoad, Colchester.
