140 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 



the collection I gave to the Museum contributed so many new species, 

 particularly as Capt. Barraud and I were serving in the same Division, 

 and must have worked over very similar ground. I was handicapped 

 by lack of knowledge, having done no collecting since 1904, and my 

 knowledge was only a rudimentary one of the British and North 

 German species. There are, however, two omissions of some 

 importance. They are : — Brentliis JieccUe : 1 took one w^orn specimen 

 near Kopriva Bridge on the Struma between June 14th and 27th, 

 1916. This was included in the collection given to the Museum. 

 Ajjatura ilia : I took three specimens of the form clytie which 

 appear to be identical with the specimen figured on Plate XXXV, 

 No. 2 (right hand side), in Lang's ' Ehopalocera Europie.' These were 

 taken between June 14th and 27th, 1916. I saw several others, all 

 worn, but it was a difticult insect to capture. Two of these specimens 

 are in the Museum collection. In addition I saw one specimen of 

 the typical ilia resting on blackberry flowers, but as usual my net 

 caught in the brambles. This was between the same dates. In 

 addition the following notes may be of interest : — Euvanessa antiopa : 

 I saw a single specimen in early spring (probably March), 1917, 

 near Kopriva Bridge, when I had no net. Epinephelc titlionus has so 

 far only been reported by Mr. Norton and Mr. Delbanty. I took 

 some specimens at Sneyce in August, 1917, but it was not common. 

 I thought these were in the Museum collection, but they did not 

 appear in the list of species which Mr. Eiley sent me after going 

 through them. In conclusion may I point out that " Ferezei " and 

 " Feragli " in the article should be " Ferezli," and " Ormonti " 

 should, I think, be " Ormanh." — D. Blanchakd; 16, Warneford Eoad,
