demolished. The National Trust should appoint an expert Com- 
mittee to deal with the matter, and at least one member should be 
familiar, from actual field work, with the life-histories of the principal 
Fen Lepidoptera, such as Papilio machaon, Meliana flammea, Nonagria 
arundineta, N. arundinis, Cidaria sagittata, &e. It is probable that 
a uniform treatment of the Fen is undesirable, and that while some 
portions are never cut (with the exception of thinning out sallow 
bushes, &c.), others should be cut periodically —A. RoBinson ;
