Glea Vaccina. This insect was abundant on the sallow blossoms, 

 but 1 did not see a single example of G. subnigra. 



Hadena CucubaU. Not scarce on the flowers of Lychnis Flos-cu- 

 culi. 



Hadena capsincola. I have taken but one specimen in the winged 

 state, though the larvae are common in the seed-pods of Lychnis dioica. 



Polia advena and herbida. Only one specimen of each ; they are 

 decidedly rare here. 



Apamea fibrosa has been rather common ; they, as well as many 

 other moths, frequent the blossoms of the common rush. 



Nonagria Tifph<B. I took two worn females on the 26th of July, 

 last year I captured a few females in the first week of September, af- 

 ter which I saw no more, although the males continued to be plenti- 

 ful and in good condition till the end of the month. I have seen no 

 males this year. 



Xanthia fulvago. We appear to have this insect earlier than in the 

 south. I took the first specimen this year on the 31st of July. I have 

 seen but few good ones after the first week in September.

 By Robert Jordan, Esq. 



Teignmouth, Devon, August 20, 1842. 

 Dear Sir, 



I send you a list of some of the smaller Lepidoptera 

 caught in the neighbourhood, which perhaps may be acceptable ; and 

 remain. Yours truly, Robert Jordan.
