TttE ENTOMOLOGIST. 401 



Colias Hyale. — By no means rare some seasons. In 1871 

 they were very scarce, but last season they appeared again in 

 greater numbers. 



C. Edusa. — More frequent than the preceding, though 

 last season they were less common than usual. 



C. Edusa var. Helice. — Two specimens vvere taken in 

 St. Clement's Bay, in the earlier part of September, 1871; 

 one by myself, and the other by my friend W. Poingdestre. 

 I took another specimen last year, also in the same bay. 



Gonepteryx Rhamni. — By no means common. 



Leucophasia Sinapis.—One specimen was taken, near 

 Claremont Hill, about the end of August, 1872. 



Anihocharis Cardamines. — Has been once taken, near 

 Victoria Village, St. Saviour's. 



Pieris Daplidice. — By no means abundant, and very local. 

 I generally take twelve to fourteen specimens every season. 



P. Napi. — Rather scarce ; Pontac, St. Clement's. 



P. RapcB. — Too abundant. 



P. Brassicce. — Common. 



Hesperia Ma/vce. — I had never seen this insect before or 

 since 1871, when I took a single specimen in the Swiss 

 Valley, St. Saviour's. 



H. Sylvanus. — Abundant. 



H. Linea. — Not common. St. Brelade's. Earliest date 

 of capture, June 29th.

Entomological Notes from South Australia. 

 By H. Ramsay Cox, Esq. 



(Continued from p. 359.) 



Through the aid of Mr, Hewitson I am enabled to com- 

 plete the meagre list of South Australian butterflies lately 

 captured there by me. These species appear to have been 

 much overlooked by entomologists: none of them are named 

 in the British Museum collection; and, with the exception of 

 Icilius and Serpentata, I could not find even their repre- 

 sentatives in it. 



lalmenus Icilius (Hewitson). — Common, but local, on 

 wattle trees, near Nairne. A lovely insect when fresh out.
