Deilephila galii. 



The statement in the last three lines of the notes upon this 

 species that " In the autumn of that year (1888) Mr. Gardner 

 found two larvae on the sand hills to the north of Hartlepool, 

 but he failed to rem- the perfect insect,^'' is incorrect. One larva 

 unfortunately escaped and was trodden upon — this larva the 

 late Mr. Dobree, of Beverley, kindly preserved for me. The 

 other larva pupated, and the perfect insect duly emerged in 

 the following June ; both it and the preserved larva are now in 

 my collection.
