NOTES, CAPTURES, ETC. 67 



opima has emerged from one of the chrysalids. — C. G. Hall; 

 3, Granville Road, Deal, February 10, 1884. 



Early Spring Lepidoptera. — I have already on my setting- 

 boards a long series of varieties of Hybernia leueophearia and 

 several Nyssia hispidaria taken in Richmond Park, Surrey. The 

 former were taken in January, and the latter in the second week 

 in February. — John T. Carrington. 



Laphygma exigua. — On the "28th of last September I took a 

 specimen of this little Noctua at light, at Romsey, Hants. — 

 Edward Buckell; 32, Gibson Square, N., February, 1884. 



Hymenopterous Parasites of Lepidoptera. — The following 

 list is uniform with those previously published. The names 

 printed in small capitals refer to species which are not included 

 in Marshall's Ent. Soc. Catalogue (1872). There are some speci- 

 mens, which require further examination, that correspondents 

 will not find mentioned in this list, but they are not forgotten ; 

 and I take this opportunity of thanking all who have kindly saved 

 for me any of the parasites they have bred. These have been found 

 useful to fellow-workers and to myself, and will materially help 

 to extend the knowledge of our Ichneumon fauna.
