Shortly afterwards, the storm having ceased, I proceeded 

 towards the hotel, to which I had only gone a few yards when 

 another example was observed on the trunk of a tree. This 

 was rendered practically torpid by the hail, and allowed me 

 without difficulty to scrape it into the net, the only instance in 

 which I succeeded in effecting a capture by this method. 



The first example was taken on June 19th, after which I did 

 not see another until June 25th, on which day two were taken ; 

 after this date, until I left Herculesbad, a few were taken each 

 day, the total amassed being fourteen fine specimens, all males, 

 and which I suppose involved about as many hours' work. I 

 believe P. roxelana is in some years quite abundant in the 

 Kreuze wood ; but it certainly was not so in 1909, and except at 

 two spots i did not see more than three or four examples each 

 day. At each of tbose exceptions grew a large oak tree, the 

 upper parts of which were dead and preyed upon by various 

 insects, chiefly the larvae of Coleoptera, and no doubt it was the
