A Hawk-moth found in the stomach of a fish in Suva 

 harbour, Fiji. — Prof. Poulton exhibited a specimen of 

 Chromis erotus, Cr. (eras, Boisd.), kindly sent to him by Lieut. 

 L. H. Mosse-Robinson with the following account : — 



" I am enclosing the large Sphingid from Fiji. The fish 

 was captured by a sailor fishing from the side of H.M.S. 

 Australia in Suva harbour, October, 1914, and the moth 

 discovered inside it, in, as you see, comparatively good con- 

 dition, considering the extraordinary circumstances. The 

 insect always comes in great quantities to light on board 

 any of the ships in Suva harbour." 



Lieut. Mosse-Robinson informed Prof. Poulton that the 

 fish was about 1 ft. long, that he saw the moth directly after 

 it had been taken from the stomach, and that convincing 

 evidence was afforded by its wet and sodden appearance. 



A series of Danaida chrysippus. L., from Fernando 

 Po. — Prof. Poulton exhibited eighteen I), chrysippus captured 

 between Nov. 3, 1914, and Feb. 15, 1915, at or near Sa. Isabel, 

 on the N. coast of Fernando Po, by his friend Mr. G. H. 

 Bullock, H.M. Vice-Consul in the island. The series was very 

 interesting in the numbers and proportions of the different 

 forms, and in the comparison between them and those of 

 the mainland opposite the island. The white-hind-winged 

 alcippus, Klug, was apparently the only form on the tropical 

 west coast from some point in Gambia, where it replaces the 

 type, as far south as the Cameroons where the type form 

 begins again to appear, although, on the testimony of Prof- 

 Yngve Sjostedt, it is excessively rare (Poulton, " Essays on
