J. B. Hodgkinson; 15, Spring Bank, Preston, September 
2, 1871. 
Lepidoptera Captured in the New Forest.—The following 
are some of the best of my captures during a fortnight’s stay, 
from the 5th to 21st August :— 
Argynnis Paphia vay. valezina. One. 
A. Adippe and Aglaia. Not rare. 
Limenitis Sibylla. Common; but of course worn. 
Melanagria Galathea. One. 
Satyrus Semele. In abundance everywhere on heaths. 
Epinephele Hyperanthus. ‘Two. 
Lycena Aigon. Abundant on heaths. 
L. Corydon. One; taken flying amongst long grass in 
Rhinefield Sandys enclosure. 
Leucophasia Sinapis. One. 
Acherontia Atropos. One larva of the olive variety. 
Liparis Monacha. Two; one male,- one female. The 
female has laid me a batch of about 150 eggs. 
Cleora Lichenaria. One. 
Pseudoterpna cytisaria. Abundant. 
Ephyra punctaria. Not rare at sugar; also by beating. 
Acidalia trigeminata.s Three; at sugar. 
Selidosema plumaria. Five. 
Notodonta dodonza. One larva. 
Acronycta Alni. Found a larva on bramble, which had 
changed its last skin all but the head; but having been 
unable to free itself from it, had died of starvation. It could 
not have been dead long, as all the markings were still 
distinct, and the colours bright when [ found it. I took it on 
a sloping hill outside Foxleaze, on the Brokenhurst road. 
Sugar was not unprofitable: the following were the best 
captures by its means :— 
Cymatophora diluta. One. 
Hydrecia nictitans. Two. 
Cerigo cytherea. Not rare. 
Triphna janthina and fimbria. Common. 
T. interjecta. One. 
T. subsequa. Eleven. This came regularly to sugar in 
one locality, but never in any abundance, three being the 
largest number seen in one evening.
