In reading the above paper, Mr. Piers made a number of observa- 
tions upon the subject : 
If the species named in the list had been correctly determined, he 
thought it would prove an interesting addition to our knowledge of the 
Lepidoptera of the province. All previous catalogues have emanated from 
Halifax, ard carefully prepared local lists from other parts of the pro- 
vince, especially from the western section, are necessary before a full 
account of cur butterflies can be presented.
