THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 867 



A. prcB/ormatct. — I took a specimen at sugar in Guernsey. 

 I forget the exact dale, but 1 think it was early in the season. 

 Mrs. Boley has also taken one; and I noticed two amongst 

 some insects captured by Mr. Dawson. 



[It may perhaps save some trouble if I state that the 

 species here indicated is the Anaitis prseformata {VilL), 

 Guenee, ' Uranides et Phala^nites,' p. 499, not the Praeformata 

 of Stephens, iii. p. 140, or the Performata of Wood, fig. 597, 

 which name must be annulled, after what Guenee has said 

 on the subject, I. c. — E. Neinnan.] 



Tanagra chair ophyllata. — Mrs. Boley has taken one or 

 two specimens in Guernsey.

Entomologoical Notes from South Australia. 

 By H. Ramsay Cox, Esq. 



(Continued from p. 209.) 



I HAVE succeeded in getting some more of ray South 

 Australian Lepidoptera named, of which the following is a 

 list. 



Petiolati. 



1. Belenois Teutonia. — One specimen captured by Mrs. 

 Cox, at Nairne. 



2. Xenica Achanta. — One, near Adelaide. 



3. Pyrameis Ilea. — A few, at the base of Mount Barker. 



4. Synemon Sophia. — Common at Mount Barker and near 

 Kanmantoo, always at a considerable elevation. This species 

 flics for a short time at mid-day only, and seldom when the 

 thermometer is lower than 145'=' Fahr., which, added to their 

 wild flight and to the rocky ground of the mountain, makes 

 their capture a matter of great fatigue and labour. 



Sessiliventres. 



5. Pollanisus viridipulverulentus. — Generally common in 

 the densest scrub. 



6. P. apicalis. — Near Hahndorf. Rare. 



7. Choerocampa Scrofa. — Two, in vineries, at Nairne. 



8. Opsirhina fervens. — One, brought to me at Nairne.
