120 LEPIDOPTERA. \ 



i 



searched for them repeatedly during the past two months, '. 

 I have taken very few. They appear to be inveterate wan- i 

 derers, always strolling about the breeding glass, when not ' 

 eating, and I find them generally on plants at some distance 

 from each other." (H. B., 11, 9, 61.) \ 



These larvse were dull whitish-green, with the spots grey; ' 

 the head black, the second segment with a blackish-green i 

 lunule behind, and the anal segment much speckled with 

 grey. ^ ' 



The third pair of legs placed on a long stem, but not club- ]

 (E. F., 28, 3, 61.) 



Ochsenheimeria VacculeVa. Mr. Scott has recorded (Int. 

 ix. p. 123) the occurrence of this species '' beneath the bark of 

 a willow tree, and on the trunk of an oak tree at Leather- 

 head." ! 



Euplocamus Boleti. Mr. Farren met with an old fungus 

 in the New Forest, infested by this insect, and bred several 

 specimens therefrom (Int. x. p. 108.) 



Adela Sulzella. *' I now send you four larvae of 

 Adela Sulzeriella, Z. I had already found small cases in 

 the autumn ; on the 1st of April I made a renewed search 

 and found six living larvae. I have not yet observed them 

 when very young. I found them under a hedge, in the 

 middle of the field; the hedge was principally privet, bnt
