boldly defined, and the ground colour is in most of the series 

 less yellow ; they show, however, a good deal of variation in 

 this respect. Two specimens are dark, resembling the 

 Delamere form." 



Mr. Harrison also stated that this species in the Isle of 

 Man rests normally on rocks, where it was wonderfully pro- 

 tected, but few settling on tree trunks. 



Mr. Goulton exhibited a long bred series of Notodonta 

 dicttza, bred in May and June, 1906, from a ? captured in 

 August, 1905, at Sutton. 



Mr. Main exhibited a living larva of Charaxes jasius, 

 received by him from the S. of France. It fed only at night, 

 and sundry marks on its body, and its green ground colour 

 gave it a wonderfully protective resemblance among the 

 leaves of its food-plant, the strawberry-tree (Arbutus unedo). 

 The curious mask of the head of the larva is shed as a whole, 

 separated from the rest of the skin, and retains its inflated 

 appearance.
