Scopelosoma satellitia. — Plentiful at Yarm, and a very variable

Xanthia fulvago. — Bred, Acklam (W. Sachse). Glaisdale. 



Xanthia Jidvago var flavescens. — Bred from catkins, Acklam, 

 Middlesbrough. At sugar (W. Sachse). Glaisdale as 

 common as type (F. Atkinson). 



Cirrhadia xerampelina. — Took a worn specimen at Acklam 

 during the latter part of August. I also took a specimen 

 some years since at Linthorpe. Ko doubt it would be 

 taken freely if well looked for, seeing that the ash on which 

 it feeds is such a common tree in the district. Mr. Frank 

 Atkinson took two specimens at Glaisdale. 



Calymnia t?-apesina. — Ingleby Greenhow, July (F. Elgee). 



Folia flavicitida. — Middle.sbrough, September 17th (F. Elgee).

 brough, on September 3rd, 8th and 12tli. Gunnergate, 

 September 6th (F. Elgee). Took twelve specimens at 

 sugar in garden at Linthorpe, Middlesbrough, durino- 

 August and September, all males but two. 



*Cleoceris viminalis. — Larvae on sallow, near Great Ay ton, on 

 June 4th, which gave both the type and var. obscura, 

 about the middle of July (W. Sachse). Kildale. 



*Agriopis aprilina. — Taken off oak tree trunk at Ingleby 

 Greenhow, on September 29th (F. Elgee). 



Aplecta prasina. — During January, a splendid set were bred, 

 reared from ova laid by a feinale caught in Kilton Woods. 

 By keeping the young larvae warm, they fed right on and 

 took very kindly to slices of apjjle (W. Sachse). 



*Aplecta occulta. — A few specimens of this fine ^N^octua 

 occurred in the Cleveland district during this summer. 

 The first specimen taken by me occurred at sugar in the 

 garden at Linthorpe, Middlesbrough, on .August 28th. I 

 also took a worn female at sugar on the 31st. This laid a 

 quantitj' of ova, which, unfortunately, proved infertile.
