280 THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S RECORD. 
30th, fifteen C. hyale and three C. edusa, on the 31st, eleven C. hyale 
and five C. edusa, on September 5th, two C. hyale, and finally, on 
September 15th, three C. hyale all worn, and eight C. edusa, all fs and 
perfectly fresh. In all, therefore, my lucerne field produced between 
August 18th-September 15th, seventy-four C. hyale and twenty-four 
C. edusa. The latter species has appeared here for the last three years 
in small numbers.—(Rey.) C. R. N. Burrows, Mucking. Sep- 
tember 18th, 1900. 
I have to record that at Ringwood during August Colias edusa and 
C’. hyale were not uncommon. My captures were as follows :—C. edusa— 
August 14th, seven; August 15th, two; August 18th, thirteen ; August 
20th, sixteen, August 21st, four, August 22nd, four, August 25th, 
twenty; and in addition on August 18th and August 25th a specimen 
of C. var. helice. C. hyale—August 18th, two; August 20th, eight ; 
August 25th, ten; whilst on August 17th, at Swanage, I took two C. 
edusa on the cliffs. The Ringwood specimens were taken almost 
entirely in clover fields, a few C. edusa being found in stubble fields, 
and one C. hyale by the roadside.—W. Buoomrieitp. September 18th, 
1900. 
I have to record that Colias edusa was common at Lancing, in 
Sussex, from August 18th to September Ist, whilst on September 16th, 
at Mapledenham, I took one example of C. edusa and one CU. hyale.— 
K. M. Dapp, 8, Colina Villas, Green Lanes, Wood Green, N. September 
18th, 1900. 
On September 13th, I knocked down a specimen of Colias edusa 
when out shooting near here.—H. Aupsrson, I’.E.§S., Hilda Vale, Farn- 
borough, Kent. September 18th, 1900. 
Colias hyale and Acherontia atropos have both been fairly abundant 
in this district this autumn.—L. W. Newman, 41, Salisbury Road, 
Bexley, Kent. 
I saw specimens of Colias hyale and C. edusa in a field of lucerne on 
Beachy Head, in the second week in June. On July 30th I saw a 
freshly-emerged C.hyale at Worcester Park, Surrey. On August 29th 
{ saw a number of C. edusa on railway banks at Whitstable; whilst 
the same day C. hyale was very common in a field of lucerne at Mar- 
gate, more plentiful than the Pierids, and I took eight freshly 
emerged. I had to take my opportunity when getting these, as a 
hostile man was working in the field, and, of course, my quarry 
usually kept to the middle or the other side of it. There were no 
C'. edusa observed in the field. On August 31st C. hyale and C. edusa 
were common at Folkestone, but were going over. On September 
6th I saw C. hyale and C. edusa on railway banks at Sidcup, and the 
latter was also observed at Crayford on the same day, and at Eltham 
and New Eltham on July 7th.—C. W. Cotrurup, 127, Barry Road, 
Nast Dulwich, 8.E. 
On August 18th, 1900, in a clover field at Upper Deal, two Colias 
edusa and five C. hyale were captured, and on the 14th, other examples 
of both species. On the 18th, at St. Margaret’s-at-Cliffe, also in a clover 
field, C. hyale was taken, and at Kingsgate-near Margate on the 24th, 
seven C. hyale, but many more specimens were seen than those 
captured, both at Deal and Kingsgate, C. hyale, however, always in 
much greater abundance than C. ednsa.—H. A. Sauzé, 11 Venner 
Road, Sydenham, 8.H. September 19th, 1900.
