and the entire insect much more pubescent. — Frederick 

 Smith ; 27, Richmond Crescent, Islington. 



Deiopeia pulchella in Hampshire. — I took two very good 

 D. pulchella a few days ago, but have not been able to get 

 any more. — George Gulliver; Brockenhurst, near Lyming- 

 ton, Hants, October 18, 1874. 



Deiopeia pulchella near Christchurch. — I have much 

 pleasure in recording the capture of a fine male D. pulchella, 

 by myself, on the 1st October, 1874, near Christchurch. — 

 [^Rev.] A. C. Hervey ; Pokesdown, Bournemouth. 



Deiopeia pulchella in Cormvall. — The D. pulchella I sent 

 you a fortnight since was captured on the 26th September 

 last, in the same field in which they were found three years 

 since. Mr. Hearle took two in the same field on the pre- 

 ceding day. Having heard of his captures I went the 

 following day, which was a bright, sunny, and very hot one, 

 and had given up all hopes of finding any, when I saw 

 coming towards me what I supposed to be a white butterfly, 

 but on its near approach found it to be D. pulchella, when I 

 gave chase, and after a long run succeeded in boxing it. I 

 have searched the same locality many times since, but have 

 not seen any more. Precisely similar captures were made in 

 the same field three years ago, Mr. H. taking two on 

 September ISthj^and the following day I took one, but saw 

 none after that, although none were taken during the inter- 

 vening years. I think we may now look on it as having 

 become established there. — Stephen Clogg ; East Looe. 



Deiopeia pulchella near Hastings. — On Monday morning 

 last (September 28th) I caught a specimen of D. pulchella on 

 the East Cliff, Hastings: the insect had a good flight. I 

 identified it by a specimen belonging to Mr. Gardner, of 

 52, High Holborn. As the moth is scarce, and September an 

 unusual time for its appearance, I thought the capture worth 

 noting. — Constance Garlick ; 33, Great James Street, W.C. 

 Septemher 30, 1874. 



Deiopeia pulchella at Brighton. — As Mr. Newman, in his 

 'Natural History of British Moths,' gives July as the month 

 for Deiopeia ])ulchella, it may interest some of your readers 

 to know that I took a specimen on a low wall on the 5th of 

 October, at Brighton, at nine o'clock in the morning. — C. 

 Hamlin ; 14, Windsor Terrace, Preston, Brighton, October 

 26, 1874.
