THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 213 



Downs, On Saturday, the 7lh, I took eight more, and they 

 are all very fine but two ; one is a beautiful female. I have 

 sent two alive to Mr. Stevens; also four to Mr. Woods, of 

 Marylebone Road ; two alive to Rev. H. Burney ; and to 

 two others. The female was but just out; its wings were 

 limp, and not half grown when found, but they soon came 

 right. I searched for the empty pupa-case, but was unable 

 to find it. — G. Parry; Church Street, St. PauPs, Canter-

Argynnis Lathonia in the Isle of Wight. — In August last 

 I captured a specimen of A. Lathonia near the cricket- field, 

 at Ventnor, and saw another taken. — J. Venables ; Barnes,

Argynnis Lathonia, C Hyale, Sfc., at Margate. — A few 

 days ago some friends of mine returned from Margate with a 

 large number of common butterflies, captured for the purposes 

 of ornamental Entomology. Amongst them were three speci- 

 mens of A. Lathonia, two of which were taken while settling 

 on the road leading to Kingsgate. They were all captured at 

 the end of July, and are in fair condition; and I have had 

 much pleasure in adding them to my collection, through the 

 kindness of my friends. Besides Lathonia they have brought 

 about twenty specimens of C. Hyale, a good supply of 

 E. ochroleuca, and one specimen of S. palealis, all from the 

 same locality. — J. P. Barrett ; 33, Radnor Street, Peckham,

Argynnis iMthonia and Pieris Daplidice at Dover.- — I 

 was looking over the setting-boards of Mr. Whoiwell (of No. 

 23, Market Square, Dover), with my friend Mr. Hall, when 1 

 spied a fine specimen of Lathonia, quite fresh and in good 

 condition ; also a specimen of Daplidice, which was rather 

 shattered in the right hind wing: they were both taken by 

 Mr. Whorwell at Dover. Mr. Whorwell has only just com- 

 menced the study of Entomology, and these rarities have been 

 taken in his first year of collecting. Mr. Hall also saw a fine 

 specimen of Lathonia in the box of a young collector 

 returning from the chase, and pointed out to him the value of 

 the insect, of which he was entirely ignorant. —J. Bradford 

 Jarvis ; Harhledoun, Canterbury, September 5, 1872.
