not always quite close together, but are relatively nearer each 
other than to their fellows on either side. 
The captured consortana, compared with bred examples, are 
noticeable on account of their lighter colour and more distinct 
ocelli; this is, I think, due to the absence of the dark powdery 
scales found so abundantly on the bred specimens. 
As far as I can form an opinion from the foregoing facts, I 
find myself unable to accept Mr. Barrett’s decision that 
Heinemann’s insect is specifically distinct from Dicrorampha 
consortana. Whilst entertaining every respect for Mr. Barrett's 
judgment in these matters, I venture to suggest that he was less 
in error in his original determination of my insect than he now 
is in his correction.

ENTOMOLOGICAL NOTES, CAPTURES, &c. 
ANOSIA PLEXIPPUS IN PEMBROKESHIRE.—I suppose that every 
new locality for this butterfly must be interesting to entomolo- 
gists; I therefore trouble you with an account of its capture in 
quite a new place. A young friend of mine, Mr.'T. Mousley, jun., 
was shooting on Lord Cawdor’s estate in this parish, towards 
the end of last September, when he observed a large butterfly of 
unusual appearance flying across a stubble-tield. He is not an 
entomologist, but perceiving that the insect was something 
uncommon at once gave chase, and with the assistance of a 
keeper and another man succeeded in capturing it. He had not 
heard of the various appearances during past years of A. plexippus 
in this country; but being certain that there was something 
uncommon about this insect he mentioned it to me. From his 
description I felt sure that it must be our new species, and asked 
him to show it to me. He brought it over one day last month, 
and I was much pleased to find that it was a very fine specimen 
of A. plexippus. It had been in the finest condition, but the tip 
of one of the fore wings was a little damaged in capturing it. 
Knowing me to be a collector he very kindly presented his prize 
to me, and now it adorns my cabinet. I may add that two sides 
of this parish are washed by the Atlantic, and the place of
