Of the Lepidopterous insects which I have the honour to 

 place before the meeting, the specimens of Nudaurelia zamhesina, 

 If. wahlbergi, and of a South African Gossus, presented by Mr. W. 

 L. Sclater, are exhibited for the first time. The specimens of 

 Nudaurelia were received from near Pretoria. For the other 

 specimens of African Bombyces (which have been exhibited before 

 under the generic name of Antherma) the Society are indebted to 

 Messrs. W. L. Sclater, F.Z.S., H. W. BeU Marley, and Majors
