HE prize was given to T. A. Worsey, who sent in a rather 

 small but beautifully set collection. It is a pity that 

 there is so little competition : but it may be due to the 

 fact that all specimens shewn have to be collected 

 within the current year, which necessitates the re- 

 collection of the common kinds. Suggestions on this 

 head are invited. 

 A large number of Catocala Nupta (Large Red Underwing) were 

 caught in August at Nafford Mills on the Avon. One was also caught 

 in the Park. 



On June 7th two Kitten Moths were found in the Playground. 

 Early in the same month Oak-Eggers brought from Yorkshire the 

 previous summer, began to hatch out.
