not uncommon where it

 second specimen was taken 

 by one of the girl students 

 in 1901 close to Falmouth 

 station and brought alive in 

 her handkerchief to Truro 

 under the impression it was 

 a bee! A few days later 

 Waters took one on horse 

 droppings near the same 

 place, and another was cap- 

 tured near Stvanpool that 

 same year
