8994 Insects. 
E. teniata. Thirty-six specimens, but only very few good ones; 
they are seldom met with fine. I got a number of eggs, but no one 
could rear any larve. 
Eupithecia pulchellata. I found this handsome species in some 
quantity, and excessively local; the whole area was not more than 
ten yards square. I found no less than sixteen specimens on one 
lump of rock, and I had hunted for a month over miles of rocks and 
only found four specimens. I sent nearly a hundred eggs to several 
entomologists to try to rear the larve, but no one succeeded in 
bringing them up. 
. venosata. Larvz on Silene inflata. 
. indigata. On firs. 
. Virgaureata. On rocks. 
new species, allied to E. minutata; three specimens. 
. tenuiata. Bred from sallow. 
. sobrinata. In hundreds. Bred. 
. Satyrata. Flying freely during sunshine. Mr. Doubleday says 
they are like the Norwegian species, very pale. 
E. abbreviata. On oaks. 
E. constrictata. Thirty specimens, chiefly beat out of yews and 
other trees; also on rocks. 
Lobophora lobulata. A hundred specimens on trunks of firs. 
L. viretata. Two by mothing. ‘ 
Thera coniferata. Bred a hundred and fifty specimens from larve 
taken on juniper: the moth is rarely met with. 
Melanippe hastata. Only one this year; I have before taken thirty 
in a day. 
M. galiata and M. derivata. On rocks. 
Scotosia,undulata. Among sallows. 
Cidaria miata and C. psittacata. Both in April ; hybernated. 
C. marmorata. Very fine-coloured specimen. 
Platypteryx lacertula. May and July; beat out and flying during 
sunshine. 
P. Falcula. May, and 20th July; fine. 
Notodonta dodonea and N. dromedarius. These J merely note as 
having bred two each from pupe I had taken with me, and they were 
two years old; so that entomologists should not throw pupe away 
because they do not emerge at the usual time. 
Ceropacha flavicornis. Flying during sunshine round birch twigs, 
and at rest; April. 
Bryophila perla. Far from any dwellings, on the rocks.
