I am delighted to see another contributor to Exotic Ento- 

 mology in Captain Lang, and to learn that we are to have 

 descriptions of Indian Lepidoptera by Mr. Frederic Moore ; 

 there is no Entomologist so capable of this task as Mr. Moore, 

 and every subscriber to the 'Monthly Magazine' will rejoice 

 that it is hereafter to be enriched by his labours. I cannot, 

 however, congratulate the Editors in having given Mr. Moore's 

 only description in this paper as a ibot-nole and in smaller 

 type : these descriptions, being the most important part of 

 the communication, should certainly have the post of honour. 

 Mr. Bates's invaluable descriptions only extend this month 

 to four pages. Mr. Fenn's new Nonagria is the one I men- 

 tioned three numbers back (Entom. 86) as Nonagria neurica: 

 from Mr. Fenn's description I fancy he has compared his 

 insect with Nonagria Arundineti, misnamed N. neurica in 

 our cabinets, and not with authentic continental specimens 

 of the true N. neurica. Mr. Doubleday, who has seen the 

 specimen, will do us a service by clearing up this little doubt. 

 The only other papers that require particular notice are those
