died a few days after without depositing. Upon examination she had 
already done so previous to capture, as only a very few ova were 
found in her body. Pyramezs cardut was fairly numerous, feeding on 
the lucerne blossoms; some in fresh condition, probably bred in the 
neighbourhood.—F. W. FrRoHAwK; September, 1921. 
CouiAs HYALE AT HAzELEIGH.—This is evidently not a Colias year 
in this neighbourhood. My wanderings in August through the many 
lucerne fields close by were altogether futile until, on the last day 
of the month, I came across a freshly-emerged specimen of C. hyale. 
C. croceus (edusa) I haven't seen at all, and, as most of the lucerne is 
now cut, I can hardly hope for any further success this year.— 
(Rev.) Ginpert H. Raynor; Hazeleigh Rectory, Maldon, September 
“th, 1921. 
CoLIAS HYALE IN SussEex.—I caught a specimen of Colias hyale 
on July 29th last near Pulborough, Sussex. This seems to be an 
interesting date.—G. H. Simpson-Haywarp ; Icomb Place, Stow-on- 
the- Wold. 
CoLIAS EDUSA AND CARADRINA AMBIGUA IN SoutH Dryon.— 
The greater part of August was spent by me at Budleigh-Salterton. 
While there I saw about half-a-dozen specimens of C. edusa. 
Since coming home I have been up in the Portsdown Hills, where 
the species was common last year and in 1917, but did not see a 
single example. I believe that in most years a few specimens are 
seen at different spots on the South Devon coast, which looks as 
though in that favoured part of the country the species survived the 
winter. In the garden of the house where I was staying at Budleigh 
Salterton was a large Buddleia, and each night among a number of 
commoner things I took specimens of Caradrina ambigua flying 
around or settled at the flowers.—J. E. Tarspat; Fareham, Hants. 
CHRYSOPHANUS PHLHZAS SCHMIDTII—On August 6th I took a 
specimen of C. phl@as ab. schmidtit on Sheen Common, Richmond. 
The ground-colour of fore wings and the band on hind wings is creamy, 
not white, and the band is slightly suffused with orange. I think it 
is referable to the form mentioned-in ‘ Butterflies of the British 
Isles.’ The second brood of C. phi@as was abundant on the common, 
and a third emerged about the last week in August.—S. B. Hopason ; 
3, Bassett Road, North Kensington, London, W. 
CELASTRINA ARGIOLUS TREBLE-BROODED.—On Sunday last (Sep- 
tember 4th) I noticed two C. argiolus gambolling in the air just 
outside my house, and have seen several. specimens flitting about the 
ivy since that day. As the second brood was out about July 20th 
these individuals evidently belong to a third brood. The only 
previous record I have of such an occurrence is in 1911, when 
September was gloriously hot.—(Rey.) Ginpert H. Rayner; Haze- 
leigh Rectory, Maldon, September 7th, 1921. 
Ca@NONYMPHA PAMPHILUS vARS.—Whilst collecting specimens of 
the above near here last month I took two which were different from
