 Notes on the capture of Lepidopterous Insects at Charlton sand-pit. I beg to enclose 

 you a list of my captures in the sand-pit aPCharlton, between the 28th of June and 

 the 2nd of August ; during which period I visited the place about seven times, re- 

 maining there from nearly 7 till dusk. I much regret that I was not sooner acquaint- 

 ed with the spot, as I consider the most productive part of the season for the smaller 

 Lepidoptera had expired.
