Exhibitions, <£c. 



Mr. Higgins exhibited a specimen of a remarkable insect recently described 

 by Mr. F. Moore under the name of Langia zeuzeroides (said to pertain to 

 the Sphingidse). It was from the Himalayas, and had been bred by Major 

 Buckley from a larva feeding on wild apricot. He also exhibited a female 

 specimen of GoHathus albosignatus (Kirkii, Westw.), from the Limpopo, 

 being, as he considered, the only known example of that sex. 



Mr. M'Lachlan exhibited a coloured plate of butterflies from Turkestan. 

 This he had been requested to show to EngUsh entomologists, as a sample 

 of the manner in which the forthcoming work on the Natural History of 

 Turkestan is to be illustrated. The entomological collections had been 

 chiefly made by M. Alexis Fedtschenko during the years 1869 — 71. The 

 work is to be published in the Russian language, with Latin diagnoses of 

 the new species. 



Mr. Bates alluded to an insect figured in the plate as Colias Nastes, var. 

 Cocandica. C. Nastes had, hitherto, only been found in Lapland {var. Wer- 

 dandi) and in Labrador and Arctic America, and it was a striking instance 

 of the manner in which some species inhabiting the Arctic regions are found
