Lepidoptera at the New Forest in June. — So much has been 

 said and written of this glorious hunting-ground that I am afraid I 

 can add little that will be of interest. I arrived at Brockenhurst on 

 June 15th, and my first capture was Hadena genista, at rest on a 

 paling, on my way to our rooms. Needless to say, perfect insects 

 were very backward, and the species that are usually so plentiful in 

 this district at this time of the year were conspicuous by their absence. 

 Larvffi-beating (which I went principally for), on the other hand, was 

 fairly profitable, the following species occurring — mostly from oak — 

 every day during my stay: — Thecla quercus, common ; Limenitis sibylla, 

 larvHS and pupge fairly plentiful on honeysuckle around tree-trunks ; 

 Nola strigida, fairly plentiful, very few emerging after successfully 

 pupating ; Liparis aurifina and L. monacha, very common ; Lithosia

 neustria, occasionally ; Pericallia syringaria, a few on honeysuckle ; 

 Himera pennaria, Phigalia pilosaria, and Amphidasys prodrom,aria, all

 lichens, but difficult to find ; Phorodesma bajularia, very scarce, I only
