THE MACRO-LEPIDOPTERA OF HAILEYBURY. 
Turs list is the result of four seasons collecting on the part of the compiler, 
assisted by past and 2 ays Entomologists of Haileybury. It cannot of 
course be considered nearly perfect; notably in the genera Sesia and 
Eupithecia ; still the capture of many not common insects is here 
recorded, some of which are perhaps not generally known to occur in 
Hertfordshire. The opportunities for sugaring are not great, and it is 
certain that many fresh species of Noctue will from time to time be 
obtained here. The localities which have been thoroughly searched are 
limited in extent and are confined to those which are within an hour's 
walk from Haileybury ; the familiar Hertford Heath and the Roman Road 
have been the chief hunting grounds. The greatest rarity taken during 
the present season is S. Fagi, a fine specimen, which was found on the 
trim of a tree by Mr. A. C. Clark’s son. In most cases where a species 
is not generally distributed here, a note is added as to frequency and locality,
