EPHYRA PENDULARIA, var. 
Tuts very beautiful variety of Ephyra pendularia was exhi- 
bited by Mr. Milleratthe meeting of the Entomological Society, 
held on the 7th of October, 1861, and was said to have been 
bred from a larva found near London, feeding on the exterior 
of the bedeguar, or mossy gall of the rose. This was 
probably a mistake, the larva having very likely fallen from 
a birch tree. I understood at the time that the larva was 
never seen actually feeding on the bedeguar. The moth is 
now in my collection.

Remarks on Colias Edusa and Colias Hyale. 
By J. JENNER WEIR, Esgq., F.L.S., F.Z.S. 
AttHoucH I have collected the Lepidoptera of this 
country for at least thirty-six years | have never had oppor- 
tunities for observing the habits of our two species of the 
genus Colias in England; but this summer having been 
unusually hot, I was induced to make a journey to my native 
town, Lewes, more particularly in hope that they might be 
plentiful; and I devoted the greater part of the month of 
August mainly to observing and capturing the two species in 
question.
