Calocampa curvimacula, very nice thing, 2 sp. taken at light. 20th April, 189G, and 

 1 sp. 17th May, 1897. 



Cucullia aateroides, 2 bred specimens. 



Cucullia intermedia, 3 sp. at light, 2 on 20 April and 1 on 16th April, 1896. 

 Among the Plusias there are some fine things. I have taken 8 different species 

 marked off on my list, viz, serea, aereoides, balluca (Fig. 21), striatella, bimaculata, 



Fig. 21. Fig. 22. 



precationis, ampla, and simplex (Fig. 22), together with one' un-ramed. Of these 

 striatella, balluca, and ampla are the rarest, with simplex and precationis the commonest. 

 All my .Plusias were taken at light. 



Heliothis armiger, one sp. taken 22nd Sept., 1895. 



Alaria florida, very pretty moth, 4 soecimens taken at light in 1894, never very 

 common. 



As to the Catocalas, I have faken 14 different species at sugar, the principal captures 



being, grynea, ultroaia (Fig. 23), a beautiful 



variety of ilia, briseis, relicta, (Fig. 18), 

 habilis, neogama (3rd Aug.> '96) and retecta. 

 The season of 1896 was by far the best I 

 have yet experienced in collecting Catocalas, 

 such species as ilia, cerogama, uniguga, and 

 parta (Fig. 24) being very common. During 

 the past season I did not notice a single 

 specimen of ilia. I understand that 0. cara 

 was taken in Toronto last season. 



Panopoda rufimargo, 

 taken at light. 



one specimen, 



Homoptera nigricans, one specimen at light. 



Bomolocha baltimoralis, 

 2 sp. at light. 



Brephos infans, one spec- / -- a 



imen taken on 11th April, 

 and one observed on 16th j] 



April, 1898. 



I have brought to the 

 meeting some of the species 

 mentioned in my paper, also a 

 few "uniques" which, as yet, 

 I have not got identified. 

 Some of these will no doubt 

 interest certain of the mem- 

 bers present. 



Sdj^fAt a future date I may ba able to relate, in a much better manner, something on 

 the "Noctuidae occurring at Toronto," which may be of more interest than the article I 

 have just read.
