included Eupithecia succeyituriata, Cidaria miata. Trichiura crat(Bgi{\), a>id 

 Diloba cceruleocephala commonly. On Oct. 8th a male Sphinx convolvuli 

 was taken. It is somewhat small, but the very fresh condition seems to 

 suggest its having only recently emerged, a rather late date, if such be the 

 case. — Joseph Anderson, Jun. ; Chichester. 



Macro-Lepidoptera collected from Norwich Gas-lamps. — For 

 some years past I have been in the habit of paying occasional visits, during 

 the months of April, August, and September, to about seventy gas-lamps 

 situated in the southern suburbs of the city of Norwich, They have yielded 

 no less than eighty-two species of Macro-Lepidoptera, besides innumerable 

 Tortrices and other Micros. Had I been able to work them systematically 

 all the year round, I believe the number of species would have been at least 

 doubled. I publish this necessarily imperfect list in the hope that it may 

 prove useful to other collectors : —
