merope. 
Prof. Westwood exhibited a globular gall on the surface of a sallow-leaf, 
made by a species of Tenthredinida ; also a Dipterous larva (Syrphus), found

Mr. W. F. Kirby exhibited, on behalf of the Rev. J. K. Brown, of 
Maidstone, a remarkable variety of Epunda lutulenta ; and, on behalf of
