240 THE ENTOMOLOGIST. 
THe Larva or Ino GLOBULARIZ.— Buckler’s figures and description 
do not agree with British specimens. I am indebted to the kindness 
of Mr. F. G. 8. Bramwell for a supply of the larve of this extremely 
local moth, and also for pointing out that Buckler’s figures and 
description do not agree with British examples of the larva. The 
difference is so great that I am inclined to think Buckler, who 
obtained his larve from continental sources, must have had some 
other species. When the actual British larve are placed before the 
figures the difference is very striking, the figures having a bluish- 
green tint, whilst the actual larve are without any trace of blue; 
there is certainly some green, but it is brownish green. The details 
given by Buckler also do not seem to correspond with those of the 
larvee I have seen. The specimens handed to me by Mr. Bramwell 
came from Hollingbury, near Brighton. The following are the chief 
points of difference:

black marking or plate tapering brown marking tapering to front,

6. ‘* The side below is entirely dark 6. The side below is dark putty

It is very difficult to follow Buckler’s description, and the above 
notes must not be taken as an ideal method, but simply as an 
attempt to indicate the main points of difference. Mr. Bramwell 
informs me that the larve from the Lewes locality are even more 
different from Buckler’s description than those from Hollingbury, 
and that they are darker in shade than the latter, with dull flesh 
colour in the spiracular areas and on the claspers.—W. G. SHELDON. 
Notes ON SECOND AND THIRD Broops, 1921.—With reference to 
the note on Nisoniades tages, second brood, seen by Mr. W. J. Lucas 
in the New Forest this year (antea, p. 218), I should like to add that 
I took a freshly-emerged specimen of the above on July 13th last 
also in the New Forest, which doubtless belonged to a second brood, 
and which, as noted by Mr. F. W. Frohawk (p. 218), was much more 
spotted and suffused with cream colour than any I have yet seen. 
I took third-brood Polyommatus itcarus between August 27th and 
September 3rd in perfect condition, and doubtless freshly emerged, 
including a nice blue female var. cerulea, all from one locality near 
here (Mortlake). The second brood of Celastrina argiolus was 
abundant here during July, and I took several specimens of same, it 
being specially fond of a small blue flower growing up the wall of a 
house and also bramble blossom. The spring brood was decidedly
