P. 22. Melinia ocellaris. — On September 13, 191 1, 

 thirty-eight specimens were captured in one of the Thames 

 Valley localities. Over two dozen specimens were taken among 

 wych elm at Shelford, Cambs., in the autumn of 19 14. (See 

 Entomologist {ox 191 5, pp. 43, 63, 86.) 



P. 112. Acidalia virgularia. — From eggs deposited by 

 a melanic female captured in south-east London, Mr. Bauman 

 reared some twenty-three specimens, many of which agreed 

 with the parent female in tint, others were grey, but none were 

 of the typical colouration of virgulaj-ia. The blackish specimens 

 are probably referable to bischoffaria. 



P. 163. Eustroma reticulata. — In an interesting article 

 on the variation of this species {Entom. xlv., 1-3, PI. i), Mr. 

 Prout gives figures of fourteen forms, two of which are named 

 costimaculata (type Fig. 5), and ovulata (Fig. 4). The early 

 stages of E. reticulata are described by Mr. F. Littlewood 

 {Ento7n. xlv., pp. 85-89), and photographs of the larva are 

 given. 



P. 175. Thera variata. — To the late Major Robertson 

 Mr. Prout was indebted for the material which enabled him 

 to confirm a doubt he had long held concerning the specific 

 identity of variata and obeliscata. In December, 191 1, the 

 Major submitted six specimens of a Thera that he had bred
