14 THE -ENTOMOLOGIST’S RECORD. 
one specimen of Catocala nupta was seen at rest in the town on an 
electric metal standard about four feet from the ground. The 29th 
was very fine. Ima little garden near Bath Haston Pyrameis atalanta 
and Aglais urticae were feeding on the asters, and two Simaethis were 
flitting about round an apple tree, but when boxed they proved to be 
only S. fabriciana. Lyonetia clerkella had been mining the leaves of the 
same apple. The great feature of September here was the abundance 
and variety of Teras contaminana. It would not I think be an exag- — 
geration to say that in some hedges there were half a dozen individuals 
to every square yard of foliage.—Atrrep Sicu. October 27th, 1917.
