  Referring 
  to 
  the 
  crepuscular 
  " 
  Skippers 
  " 
  Dr. 
  Neave 
  

   remarked 
  that 
  in 
  Africa 
  the 
  flight 
  was 
  not 
  a 
  long 
  one, 
  but 
  

   took 
  place 
  before 
  settling 
  down. 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Green 
  said 
  that 
  in 
  Ceylon 
  allied 
  " 
  Skippers 
  " 
  were 
  

   day-fliers, 
  but 
  took 
  shelter 
  in 
  culverts 
  from 
  which 
  they 
  could 
  

   be 
  disturbed. 
  

  

  Referring 
  to 
  the 
  migration-like 
  flight 
  of 
  Calpodes 
  ethlius 
  

   Mr. 
  G. 
  C. 
  Champion 
  said 
  that 
  the 
  dates 
  given 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Williams 
  

   fell 
  into 
  the 
  dry 
  season, 
  and 
  that 
  his 
  experience 
  in 
  Central 
  

   America 
  led 
  him 
  to 
  believe 
  that 
  the 
  insects 
  were 
  seeking 
  

   water 
  in 
  damp 
  spots 
  in 
  some 
  nearly 
  dry 
  river 
  bed.
