INSECTS 



APHIDES, &c. 



The late Sir O. Mosley contributed some articles on Aphides to the early volumes of the 

 Gardeners' Chronicle, and Mr. E. Brown gives some observations in his account of the fauna 

 of the Burton district (Natural History of Tutbury, &c., p. 167). Mr. C. Brett has also 

 recorded a few species from the Alton district (Report North Staffs. Field Club, 1905-6, 

 p. 75-6).
