last female in the column, which emerged in October, 

 resembles the captured specimen ; and the two above, which 

 also emerged in October, are not quite ordinary in their 

 markings. The remainder are somewhat larger than 

 captured July specimens that I have taken. The moths are 

 still coming out at odd intervals, but unfortunately most of 

 the later ones are cripples.

Dr. Chapman exhibited a number of butterflies collected 

 last summer in Spain, amounting to about eighty-one 

 species, and read a paper on the excursion during which 

 they were collected. He gave some details as to travelling 

 and the accommodation met with, and some notes on the 

 geography and topography, as well as on the mode of life of 

 the inhabitants of the district visited. 



This was the Albarracin Sierra, an upland hilly countr}^ 

 lying between Cuen9a and Teruel, about halfway between 

 Madrid and the eastern coast of Spain. He mentioned that 

 quite recent railway extension makes it now easy to visit, 

 even compared with the state of affairs last summer. 



The butterflies included Sntynis pricnri and its variety 

 ■uhagojiis, with seven other species of Saiynis. Erchia zapatcri, 

 and two very distinct forms oi L.corydon, viz. vd.v.corydonms 

 and hhpana, which occurred on adjacent, and even on the 

 same ground, but had no intermediate forms, and behaved, 

 in fact, as distinct species, the precisely similarly related L. 

 hylas and its variety Jiivescens, etc.
