Lepidopiera near Folkestone. — C. Hyale, tolerably plen- 

 tiful. C. Ednsa, rather scarce. E. russula, eleven females 

 and seven males, bred from the eggs laid in July, and many 

 captured, A. gilvaria, plentiful. L. albipuncta,four. A. saucia,

Colias Hyale abundant, and C. Edusa, near Maldon. — 

 During September I succeeded in taking as many as seventy 

 specimens of Colias Hyale, the greater part in a large clover- 

 field, in Woodham Mortimer parish, but something like a 

 score in a lucerne-field, on the glebe-land belonging to Haze- 

 leigh Rectory. One of the females deposited eight eggs 

 — seven in the bottom of a pocket-box, and one on a clover- 

 head : these unfortunately proved to be infertile, shrivelling 

 up in a i^v^ days. Colias Edusa was not abundant : I only 

 secured twelve good specimens, three of which were females.

 more; and on the 25th a Sphinx Convolvuli. — J. Hawkins ;

Sphinx Convolvuli at Newport, Isle of Wight. — It may 

 interest entomologists to hear that 1 have taken two speci- 

 mens of the Convolvuli hawk-moth. I cauglit them both 

 soon after sunset, hovering over a bed of geraniums, on the 

 22nd and 26th of September. — Frank Morey ; Newport,

 to record tlie occurrence at Hastings of a specimen of Deio-
