WILLIAM WATKINS, Entomologist, 

 21, PICCADILLY, w. (2 doors from St. James's Hall.) 



EXOTIC LEPIDOPTERA. 



AN inspection of my fine Stock is respectfully solicited. My prices will be found to 

 compare favourably with any other dealer (professional or amateur), and are suitable 

 to all buyers, depending entirely upon the condition of the specimens desired ; those 

 slightly rubbed or otherwise damaged being sold at Yery low price, no matter how scarce. 

 Consignments are being continually received from remote regions, and many hundreds of 

 very scarce as well as new species have passed into the collections of my patrons during 

 past year. I have the pleasure to announce that besides being in communication with 

 Kesident Collectors in many countries all the world over, I have engaged to collect exclu- 

 sively for me two professional Entomologists, who have jDroceeded to the Amazon region 

 in South America and to TJj)per Burmah respectively, whence they will explore entirely 

 unworked regions, and from the former of whom already very fine Consignments have 

 been received. I am always prejjared to buy collections containing desirable species, and 

 to deal liberally, and to pay prompt cash to any amount.

Very fine specimens of nearly all obtainable species on hand, as well as many larvfe 

 and pupss in the season.
