SYNONYMIC LIST OF BRITISH BUTTER- 

 FLIES AND MOTHS. By Henky Doubleday. This is 

 the only complete List of British Lepidopterous Insects. 

 It contains the names and svnonymes of every Butterfly and 

 Moth discovered in Great Britain up to the date of publi- 

 cation. The great object in printing this most complete 

 and laborious work is to establish a uniform nomenclature, 

 the diversity hitherto existing, both in names and arrange- 

 ment, being a source of confusion and perplexity to aU be- 

 ginners, is^ot only is Mr. Doubleday's own collection (the 

 normal collection of British Lepidoptera) ai-ranged and 

 named in accordance with tliis List, but the Entomological 

 Societies of Oxford and Cambridge adopt it in their ' Ac- 

 centuated List,' recently published. — Price, printed on both 

 sides, Sevenpence, post free ; or printed in duplicate [one copy 

 for labels and the other for reference), 2s., post free.
