B. lichenaria (on lichens growing on apple-trees). Later in the year 
numerous moths come to “sugar,” and besides those already men- 
tioned as larvee are H. derasa, T. batis, A. segetum, A. exclamationis, 
A. ypsilon, N. glareosa, N. depuncta (a single specimen), N. c-nigrum, 
N. brunnea, N. plecta, T. tanthina, E. prasina (four examples only), 
EH. occulta (one specimen), EH. nebulosa, B. brassicae, M. oleracea, 
C. graminis, C. matura, M. strigilis, M. literosa, M. bicoloria (rather 
scarce), X. lithoxylea, X. monoglypha (ab. perfusca, one example), 
A. lutulenta, P. chi, P. meticulosa, M. maura, N. typica, L. pallens 
(reddish form), LZ. wmpura, L. lithargyria, L. conigera, C. quadri- 
punctata, M. tragopogonis, and X. circellaris. Flowers are also very 
attractive—lavender to A. triplasia, H. sylvina, &e.; sage to N. wm- 
brosa and C. taraxact; while ragwort produces plenty of Z’. znterjecta, 
H. nictitans, H. micacea, &e. A strong acetylene light and a sheet 
have been the means of obtaining D. falcataria, C. glaucata, S. lubri- 
cipeda, S. menthrastri, L. lurideola, A. agathina (one specimen), 
EH. popularis, T. cespitis, L. testacea, S. anomala, C. xerampelina, 
A. lunosa, A. lychnidis, X. fulvago, X. flavago, P. chrysitis, P. gamma, 
H. proboscidalis, P. pruinata, G. papilionaria, H. strigata, A. aversata, 
A. bisetata, O. linutata, C. brumata, T. dubitata, L. prunata, L. tes- 
tata, C. truncata, C. siterata, C. miata, L. suffumata, C. ferrugata, 
A. viridaria, M. didymata, X. montanata, X. fluctuata, X. sociata, 
P. alchemillata, C. bilineata, H. furcata, A. badiata, EH. vulgata, 
HE. rectangulata, A. sylvata, A. grossulariata, L. marginata, L. adus- 
tata, C. pusarva, M. margaritaria, H. almaria, S. bilunaria, C. bidentata, 
C. elinguaria, O. sambucaria, O. luteolata, EH. apiciaria, H. marginaria, 
A. escularia, B. gemmaria, B. repandata, and one example of H. fusco- 
nebulosa ab. gallicus; also, on the sand-hills, P. dictea, A. vestigialis, 
A. cursoria, A. tritici, A. strigula, A. precox, EH. lichenea, T. fulva, 
G. obscurata, and X. galiata. The following moths have been taken 
on the wing :—WM. stellatarum, C. potatoria (one specimen on the 
sand-hills), O. qwadra (one example; one larva has also been found), 
P. interrogationis (one example on heath), H. humuli, and H. lupu- 
lina. In April the pup of M. thalassina are abundant under moss 
on rocks and stone walls, and in August the tall marsh thistles con- 
tain the pupee of O. ochracea. 
On the whole it may be said that Anglesey is fairly productive of 
Lepidoptera, much, however, depending on the season.—H. §. A.

EntomoLocicaL Society or Lonpon.— Wednesday, October 6th, 
1909.—Dr. F. A. Dixey, M.A., M.D., President, in the chair.—Mr. 
Hugh Scott, B.A., Trinity College, and the Museum of Zoology, 
Cambridge, and Mr. Carlton C. Goudey, B.Sc., Uganda, British Hast 
Africa, were elected Fellows of the Society.—Sir George Hampson 
brought for exhibition the unique example of a Noctuid moth new to 
science, captured in the neighbourhood of Aberdeen by Mr. L. G. 
Esson, and presented to the National Collection by the Hon. N. C. 
Rothschild. It would be necessary, he said, to constitute a new 
genus for it, as it presented characters not known to exist in allied
