" The present volume is more than an amplification and correc- 

 tion of its predecessor. It has been my aim, by the insertion of 

 more readable matter, to render the ' Companion' more entertaining 

 without sacrificing any of its usefulness, and without enhancing the 

 cost." — Preface. 



" For those interested in the study of the smaller moths, this book 

 will be found of great use. The ways of catching, keeping, rear- 

 ing, killing and setting these minute creatures are fully detailed. " — 

 Athenceum.
