26 



During my stay I kept a good look-out all the time for Eremobia 

 ochrokuca^ but I fancy I was too early for that beautiful species, as 

 the specimens I captured last year {1902) at Deal were taken on the 

 2ist August in fine condition. 



It being rather an off-time for larvre, I did not work for them, 

 with the exception of one afternoon vainly spent in searching for 

 Agrotis ripcc. Mr. Turner came across some V. io larvse during 

 our first ramble together, and some of the results are shown in my 

 exhibit. I should judge that the neighbourhood possessed good 

 possibilities in this respect. 



I have endeavoured in these few notes to put before you my 

 personal reminiscences of what was a very pleasant and very busy 

 holiday, and I trust that they have not been altogether uninteresting 

 to you. I have not gone into more general matters connected with 

 that very beautiful part of Devonshire, as these have already been 

 dealt with by Mr. Turner in his previous notes, and he will no doubt 

 make up for my present deficiencies in those which he is about to 

 give you. I have to thank him most heartily for his companionship 

 and for his help, at all times most cheerfully rendered.
