[The following pages contain notes and descriptions 

 of larvse prepared this year (1885), by the Rev. John 

 Hellins, with the view of supplying some of the gaps 

 which occur amongst the descriptions left by the late 

 Mr. William Buckler.— H. T. S.] 



These notes consist partly of extracts taken from 

 my diaries, partly of descriptions made purposely this 

 summer. I am painfully aware how much they fall 

 short of the excellence of my late friend's work, and 

 only offer them as stop-gaps. — J. H.
