like forms from Delamere Forest, in Cheshire, but, as regards 

 two of them, are more speckled. 



Of Hypsipetes sovdidata there were two highly melanic 

 examples, very glossy, and the central third blacker than the 

 rest of the fore wings. The last specimen to be noted in 

 this interesting exhibit was a unicolorous, dark, fuscous brown 

 example of Ematurga atomaria. 



Mr. West (Greenwich) exhibited the little Homopteron 

 Liburnia lepida, taken at Esher in August, including both 

 developed and undeveloped forms. It is extremely local, 

 and has not before been noted near London.

 fulvago (cerago), taken from one sallow bush on Wimbledon 

 Common, and including the var. flavescens. 



Mr. Hy. J. Turner exhibited two large ? s of Argynnis 

 aglaia taken at Gavarnie, Pyrenees, in August, 1905, 

 measuring 65 mm. in expanse, and two o*s from the Alps, 

 measuring only 52mm. He also showed A. niobe, <$ , ?, 

 typical under-side of ? with the silvery areas fully developed, 

 and var. eris, in which the silvery markings were completely 

 suppressed.

 Papilio podalivius, Polygonia c-album, and Aporia cratczgi ; of 

 ova, including P. podalivius, Euchloe cardamincs, and Satyr us

 and of various fruits and galls. Mr. Lucas showed various 

 biological slides, a few New Forest views, slides showing 

 resting habits of Lepidoptera, and photographs of rare

 Boarmia cindaria from New Forest parents, and of Phragma-
