Hiibner’s figures of this species are so bad that it is no wonder

Norres oN THE Season oF 1891.— In spite of the very bad weather 
we have had, I found the season of 1891 very productive of insects every- 
where I have collected, and perhaps the following notes from various 
localities may be of interest. Unless otherwise mentioned Crouch End is 
the locality. The season commenced with Phigalia pilosaria, one male on 
afence at Mill Hill. Anisopteryw escularia appeared on the fences on 
March 15th, but Hybernia proyenmaria not until April 4th. Towards the 
end of March and early April Saturnia carpini emerged in my breeding- 
cages from Scotch larve, and, though the females were the normal size, the 
males seemed very small. Two visits to Hampstead Heath, on April 17th 
and 21st, resulted in Larentia multistrigata in any numbers, flying round 
the furze-bushes at dusk, and later on at rest on the same bushes. In 
Hampstead Lane, on the same nights, I found Hybernia progemmaria in 
plenty, and a single Scotosia certata on the gas-lamps. Three visits early 
in May to the same place turned up T@niocampa gothica, T. rubricosa, T. 
stabilis and T. instabilis fairly plentifully on the sallows. The first and 
last-named species also occurred sparingly ou the Highgate lamps, in 
company with Selenia illunaria. On these same visits we found larve of 
Boarmia repandata, Noctua xanthographa, N. baja, N. augur, N. rubi, N. 
brunnea, and N. triangulum, very plentiful on the dwarf sallows, which all 
emerged in due course. On a visit, early in April, to the Wake Arms, 
Epping Forest, we took dsphalia flavicornis ; and a second visit in May, 
by night, for Triphena fimbria, resulted in one larva only. By searching 
at night for larve at Stamford Hill, we obtained much the same as at 
Hampstead, but in addition Leucania pallens and L. lithargyria. From 
Waldringfield, near Woodbridge, Suffolk, we obtained pup of Dicranura 
vinula, D. bifida and D. furcula, also most of the larvee already mentioned, 
and in addition Triphena orbona, T. ianthina, T. interjecta, and Orthosia
