THE MAT RATS. 
For 1891. 
ADDITIONS TO 
THE YORKSHIRE LIST OF LEPIDOPTERA 
FOR THE DONCASTER DISTRICT. 
HERBERT H. CORBETT, M.R.C.S., 
Doncaster. 
THE following species of Lepidoptera having been noticed by me 
at or near Doncaster during 1889 and 1890, and not appearing in 
Mr. Porritt’s list for that district, and in some cases not occurring in 
the county list at all, may be worthy of record. Some species are 
so common that they have probably been omitted from the local 
lists purposely. Those that do not occur in the county list’ are 
marked with an asterisk.
