Capture of Chrysophanus phlceas var. schmidtii. — My daughter, 

 Miss Gwendoline Nurse, captured a specimen of the above in fair 

 condition on August 11th, at Dolgoch, Towyn, Merioneth. It is 

 similar to the one figured on Plate 101, No. 7, in South's 'Butterflies

Argynnis lathonia in Guernsey. — I should like to record the 

 capture, on August 7th, in Guernsey, of a perfect female specimen of 

 Argynnis lathonia. The capture was made about noon in a lucerne 

 field bordering on the sea. — H. G. Lekay; 11, Wontner Road, Upper

Cateremna terebrella in East Devon. — It may be of interest 

 to record that my colleague, the Rev. J. S. Martin, JDred in July a 

 specimen of G. terebrella from a spruce cone collected with others 

 near Ottery St. Mary, Devon. This seems a far cry from the home 

 of the species in Norfolk. I have for several years collected the 

 cones from the same spot in order to breed strobilella, but have 

 unfortunately thrown them away as soon as the Tortrix emerged. — 

 John W. Metcalfe; Ottery St. Mary, July 31st, 1911.
