SERIES OF British Leprpoprera.—Mr. W. G. SHELDON 
exhibited :— 
(1) A series of Peronea cristana Fab., of over 1300 specimens, 
including the specimens contained in the series of the late 
Sydney Webb. This series contains examples of all the 
72 named forms, and the type specimens of 38 of them. 
(2) A series of Oxigrapha literana L., of about 250 specimens, 
including examples of most of the named forms, and the 
type specimens of six of them. This series contains the 
material used by the exhibitor in his paper on this species 
in the current volume of the Entomologist. 
A FoRM OF HEODES PHLAEAS L., in 8.W. Ucanpa.—Prof. 
Poutton exhibited the eleven specimens of H. phlaeas 
referred to by Dr. G. D. H. Carpenter in a letter written 
from Kabale, S8.W. Uganda (30° E., 1° 15’ S.: 6000 ft.) 
on January 11, 1916 :—‘“‘ I’ve also seen a typical ‘ Copper,’ 
which I’ve never met before in Africa” (Proc. Ent. Soc., 
1916, p. exv). On January 29 Dr. Carpenter caught a speci- 
men on the shore of Lake Bunyoni, W. Kabale, and ten 
others, between January 23 and February 23, at Kigezi 
(29° 45’ B., 1°15’S.: - 6000 ft.). Only two females were 
taken, both on February 23, a male being captured on the 
same day. The right hind-wing of the Kabale male was 
shorn, probably by an enemy. 
In a very uncritical spirit I assumed that the “ Coppers ” 
were H. abbott Holl., and recorded this erroneous determina- 
tion on the above-quoted page. When, however, Canon St. 
Aubyn Rogers saw the specimens, during the past summer, 
he at once pointed out that they were very different from 
the abbott with which he was so familiar on Kilimanjaro,
