934 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 
I have only one for 1915 and another for 1916. Sericosomus brun- 
neus, L., of this species I met with but one specimen in each year. 
Agriotes lineatus, L., one specimen beaten from pine, 1916. Cam- 
pylus linearis, L., one male example secured in 1915 and two females 
in 1916. 
TELEPHORIDE : Podabrus alpinus, Pk., not uncommon, each year. 
Cueripa#: Tillus elongatus, L., a male specimen in 1915 and 
another in 1916. 
CHDEMERIDEZ : Nacerdes melanura, L., one specimen in 1915. 
Ischnomera cerulea, L., one in 1914. Ischnomera sanguinicollis, F., 
one in 1916. Cdemera lurida, Marsh, a specimen from hawthorn 
blossom in 1915.—Ricuarp Sout; 4, Mapesbury Court, N.W. 
Larv# OF CEROSTOMA IN THE New Forsst, June, 1916.—Most 
of the hawthorns, especially at Rhinefields, yielded larve of 
C. scabrella. A few larve of C. horridella were also beaten from the 
Rhinefields hawthorns, more fell from sloe, but not one could be 
obtained from crab-apple (Pyrus malus). Larve of C. costella and 
C. radiatella were common on oak, but those of C. alpella and 
C. lucella were not noted. Some larve beaten from sallow, thought 
to be C. sequella, did not mature. Honeysuckle here and there pro- 
duced a few C. xylostella, but not a larva of C. nemorella was seen.

RETARDED EMERGENCE OF YPONOMEUTA COGNATELLUS. — 
Wherever Huonymus europeus flourished in the New Forest last 
June there also would be seen the larval web or webs of Y. cogna- 
tellus. A good supply of full-grown larve were taken from one of 
these colonies on June 14th. These pupated in due course, and, as I 
thought, all the moths emerged during the first half of July. On 
looking at the box again on September 3rd I was surprised to see 
three living and very fresh imagines therein. They certainly were 
not there on August 23rd, as I had occasion to examine the box on 
that date-—RicHarp Sours. 
ASTHENA BLOMERI IN BUCKINGHAMSHIREG.—On July 18th last I 
went to Chalfont Road to visit a wood in the neighbourhood, where 
on August 8th, 1891, I obtained my first specimens of A. blomere 
(‘Entom.,’ xxiv, p.217). Soon after leaving the station I was pleased 
to meet two wielders of the net who were just returning from the 
identical wood to which I was going. Naturally we chatted upon 
matters entomological, and touching A. blomert I gathered that the 
“bag” of each comprised a goodly number of this species. This was 
interesting as proof that blomerz still stands where it did. However, 
I went on to the old spot and found the moth there right enough, but 
I-only saw avery few specimens. Lacking the information I had 
received, I might have concluded that this pretty little species was 
becoming scarce or that my visit was not well timed. Hither 
deduction would have been wrong.—RicuaRD SouTH. 
AGRIADES CORYDON ATTACKED BY ZICRONA CARULEA.—I am very 
much interested in Dr. Gifford Nash’s observations on the bug 
Zicrona cerulea (antea, p. 210), which prove thaé he living butter-
