H. Strecker's Catalogue of N. A. Butterflies received. 



It is just what beginners want and is indispensible to those 

 further advanced. For the beginner it contains full instructions 

 for collecting-, breeding, preparing etc., a plate showing the 

 structure of butterflies and the scientific terms and abbreviations 

 used in works on Lepidoptera; for the more advanced it contains 

 an exceedingly rich synonymy ; and for both interesting bio- 

 graphical notes on the authors, their works cited etc. 



We heartily recommend the work to our Readers. 



Acquisitions of Hare Lepidoptera. 



During this year I received from Colorado, a specimen of the rare 

 Sphinx sequoias Boisd. as far as I know the only specimen thus far 

 represented in any N. A. collection. 



From Florida 1 received a specimen of Daremma catalpa Boisd. 

 kindly determined for me by my friend Prof. A. R. G-rote. 



From the last named locality I also received a specimen of the 

 Catocala sappho StrecTier, a most beautiful species.
