ADDITIONS AND COHRECTIONS 



Nonagria neurica (Page 92). — The Hon. N. C. 

 Eothschild has now most obligingly furnished pupa-skins for 

 description : — 



Pupa unusually long and slender, and very nearly cylin- 

 drical from end to end, but the eye-covers projecting in front 

 of the head into an almost beak-like knob ; wing-covers long 

 and narrow, shining and without sculpture, as also are the 

 limb-cases, except a series of cross-channels upon the antenna- 

 covers ; abdominal segments extended to their full length, of 

 the same diameter as the thoracic portion, except the last 

 two, which taper off, the anal being very bluntly rounded, 

 all, with the dorsal segments, glossy and without visible 

 sculpture, the overlapping edges only being a very little 

 thickened and more dull on the surface ; general colour 

 chestnut-brown; spiracles distinctly black-brown ; cremaster 

 of the general colour or slightly darker, short and very blunt, 

 but furnished with a widely divergent pair of spikes. 

 Within the reed-stem. 



Toxocampa craccse (Page 261),— I now find that this 

 species is not confined to the north coast of Devon, but 

 extends its range to the contiguous portion of Cornwall. 



Hydrilla palustris (Page 267).— With respect to the 

 specimen in the collection of the late Mr. H. Doubleday, in 

 Bethnal Green Museum, the Hon. N. C. Eothschild has made 

 inquiry of the actual captor, Mr. James English, and has 

 satisfactorily ascertained that this specimen is the very 

 example captured by Mr. English, at Quy Fen, in 1871.
