podalivius, and a ? of Parnassius apollo, with ova of the last 

 named, all from the Rhone Valley. 



Mr. Rayward exhibited living larvae (i) of Agrophila 

 trabealis (sulphuralis) from the Cambridge Fens ; and (2) of 

 Cupido minima from Horsley. The latter was feeding on 

 kidney vetch. 



Mr. Tonge exhibited (1) a living larva of Phryxus livomica, 

 taken at Lewes ; (2) a preserved larva of the same species 

 from Alberto, Spain, given him by Dr. Chapman ; (3) a larva 

 of Sesia stellatarum from Dunwich, Suffolk ; and (4) a series 

 of photographs of insects in situ, taken during the Society's 

 Field Meeting at Leith Hill, on June 30th, including Aplecta 

 nebulosa, Cucullia umbratica, Bomolocha fontis (crassalis), and 

 Larentia viridaria {pcctinitaria). 



Mr. Edwards exhibited var. cceca of Aphantopus (Enodia) 

 hyperanthus and a ? of Trochilium crabroniformis from Horsley, 

 taken during the Society's Field Meeting on July 14th. 



AUGUST 23rd, 1906. 



Messrs. A. Harrison and H. Main exhibited a series of 

 Phorodesma smaragdaria, bred from larvas taken on the Essex 

 marshes. Among them was one specimen without the light 

 markings on the fore wings, the green being much richer 

 in tint and uniform, with the exception of the discoidal spot, 

 which was strongly marked. 



Mr. Barnett exhibited a short series of Anthroccra trifolii 

 from Wanborough, Guildford, most of them with more or 

 less confluent spots, and one with the scales on the right fore 

 wing very ill developed. He stated that it was very difficult 

 to get an example in which the spots had not coalesced. He 

 also showed a number of examples of Epincphelc janira, show- 

 ing the pigment imperfectly developed, and one ? specimen 

 with an extremely light pale band on the fore wing. 



Mr. Hy. J. Turner exhibited (1) two examples of the 

 Hemipteron, Carpocoris (Pentatoma) fuscispinus, the first taken 

 by him in the Morgenbach Valley on the left bank of the 

 Rhine, the second bred from a larva taken at Seeburg, near 

 Lucerne, in early August. The species is a widely dis- 

 tributed one and very variable. The specimens exhibited 

 were unusually pale. It has occurred in England, but only 

 on rare occasions; those taken have all been obtained in 

 Devonshire. The pre-imaginal case was also exhibited, and 

 it was pointed out that the outer coverings of even the tarsal
