Hepialus Hectus, three, Torwood, flying, June 12. 



Hadena rectilinea, one, Torwood, at sugar, June 12. I believe this insect has not

Pyrausta cingulata, two, Arthur's Seat, among flowers, June 13. 



Acronycta Rumicis, two, Latham -moss, June 13.

Macrochila bicostella, three, Latham-moss, June 13. 



Phycita abietella, two, Latham-moss, June 13 ; six, Latham-moss, June 25. 



Maesia favillacearia, one, Latham-moss, June 13 ; three, near Brodick, Isle of Ar- 

 ran, June 15. 



Lasiocampa Rubi, one, female, Latham-moss, June 13 ; one, Latham-moss, June 

 18. These insects were flying very abundantly, but were very difficult to take. 



Hepialus Velleda, nine, near Brodick, Isle of Arran, June 14. 



Cidaria latentaria, one, near Brodick, Ise of Arran, June 14. 



Argynnis Aglaia, one, near Brodick, Isle of Arran, June 15. 



Lasiocampa Quercus, thirty, near Brodick, Isle of Arran, June 15. I can scarcely 

 believe these to be either L. Roboris or L. Quercus, since the specimens are both lar- 

 ger and darker: they came out of the pupae at the beginning of June, after remaining 

 two years in the larva and pupa state, being fifteen months in the former and nine in 

 the latter. •

Leiocampa Dictaea, one, Carron, on a willow-tree, June 27. 

 During the month of May, I took a great number of caterpillars on the blossoms of 

 sallows and on the trunks of trees, and on the 10th and I lth of June, I found several 

 caterpillars of Dasycheira fascelina on heather, the latter have since come out. — Id.
