  Mr.

  W. 
  Janson, 
  on 
  the 
  part 
  of 
  A. 
  R. 
  Hogan, 
  Esq., 
  exhibited 
  a 
  Lepidopterous 
  

   larva, 
  from 
  the 
  segments 
  of 
  which 
  proceed 
  several 
  elongate 
  fungus-like 
  excrescences, 
  

   and 
  concerning 
  which 
  Mr. 
  Hogan 
  communicates 
  the 
  following 
  : 
  — 
  

  

  " 
  All 
  the 
  account 
  I 
  can 
  give 
  you 
  of 
  this 
  singular 
  creature 
  is, 
  that 
  having 
  found 
  it 
  

   some 
  time 
  last 
  winter 
  (in 
  January, 
  I 
  think) 
  when 
  I 
  was 
  busily 
  engaged 
  with 
  other 
  

   matters, 
  without 
  identification 
  or 
  examination 
  I 
  threw 
  it 
  into 
  a 
  chrysalis-box 
  which 
  

   contained 
  both 
  moss 
  and 
  clay; 
  in 
  the 
  former 
  of 
  these 
  it 
  disappeared, 
  and 
  I 
  saw 
  no- 
  

   thing 
  more 
  of 
  it, 
  till 
  on 
  preparing 
  to 
  start 
  for 
  England 
  in 
  May 
  last, 
  I 
  cleared 
  out 
  the 
  

   box, 
  and 
  found 
  it 
  dead, 
  precisely 
  in 
  the 
  state 
  you 
  will 
  now 
  see." 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Douglas 
  exhibited 
  a 
  bamboo 
  fan, 
  one 
  of 
  a 
  case-full 
  imported 
  from 
  China 
  two 
  

   or 
  three 
  years 
  since, 
  and 
  all 
  of 
  which 
  were 
  now 
  found 
  to 
  be 
  eaten 
  through 
  and 
  through 
  

   by 
  Apate 
  Bambusae. 
  

  

  The

  praslatella,

  on 
  

   April 
  9th,

  West 
  Wickham 
  Wood, 
  the 
  larva 
  feeding 
  on 
  Geum 
  urbanum. 
  He 
  also 
  

   exhibited 
  specimens 
  of 
  a 
  new 
  Lithocolletis, 
  which 
  he 
  proposed 
  to 
  call 
  L. 
  Scabiosella, 
  

   having 
  found 
  the 
  larvae 
  mining 
  the 
  radical 
  leaves 
  of 
  Scabiosa 
  Columbaria, 
  growing 
  at 
  

   the

  of 
  the

   holostea, 
  and

  albitarsella, 
  bred 
  from

  hederacea. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  S. 
  Stevens 
  exhibited 
  a 
  living 
  larva, 
  in 
  its 
  case, 
  of 
  the 
  rare

  conspi- 
  

   cuella, 
  taken 
  at 
  Headley 
  Lane, 
  on 
  Centaurea 
  nigra 
  .^ 
  It 
  was 
  black, 
  shining, 
  and 
  in 
  

   shape 
  like 
  the 
  case 
  of 
  C. 
  albitarsella, 
  but 
  double 
  the 
  size. 
  He 
  also 
  exhibited 
  a 
  speci-
