95. Anthracophaga frontosa, Mg. : four specimens from Abbey 

 Wood on May 7th, 1871. 



96. Haplegis divergens, Lw. : four specimens from Warreugore 

 Wood, near Lewes, on July 16th, 1871. 



97. CMorops puncticollis, Ztt. : common at Aberlady on June 

 30th, 1870, and I have also taken it at Eaunoch on June 18th, 1870, 

 and at Eedbridge, Hants, on June 18th, 1875. 



98. Cacoxenus indagator, Lw. : whether the Milicliidcs are entitled 

 to the rank of a separate family or not is still an unsettled question, 

 but in Part iii of my " List " I included the family, with three reputed 

 British species. I can now add this species, and partly confirm as 

 British two of the previous ones. C. indagator appears to have a 

 curious habit of occurring on windows, and I have caught three on 

 my study window : one on May 29th, 1886 ; the second on May 24th, 

 1892 ; and the third on May 28th, 1892. I have also seen some old 

 British specimens. 



99. Milichia ornata, Ztt. : the various species of Milichia are at 

 present very insufficiently differentiated, and, consequently, I can only 

 say that a specimen caught by me at Ulleswater on June 26th, 1889, 

 seems to be this species, even though the cross-veins on the wings are 

 scarcely darkened at all. The species seem to vary in this respect, as 

 well as in size, consequently Zetterstedt's M. boletina may be only a 

 variety, and perhaps both only varieties of our reputed species, M. 

 maculata, Mg. 



100. Pliyllomyza securicornis, Fin. : I caught a few specimens 

 of this curious species at Braemar on July 25th, 1873, by sweeping 

 about nests of the wood ant ; my specimens have somewhat darker 

 legs than continental types and descriptions, but I do not know 

 enough of the group to consider them distinct.

ABOUT SOME SAMOAN BUTTERFLIES. 

 BT JANE FRASEE, 



Within fourteen degrees of the equator, and under a cloudless 

 sky, one naturally expects to see butterflies, birds and flowers of 

 glowing colours, but the first thing that struck me on landing in TJpolo 

 was the almost universally quiet, even sombre tone of colour of the 

 butterflies. Flowers there were in abundance of brilliant hue, scarlet 

 Hibiscus, yellow Alamanda, weeds by the wayside like small scarlet
