THE LEPIDOPTERIST’S CALENDAR 69 
JULY. 
So many gems now reward the labours of the careful investigator, that our available 
space is insnflicient for their detailed record. It may, however, be nentioned that T, [ehneu- 
moniforme should be sought for on slopes on the coast; and 1, Littoralis on sand-hills in 
similar situations. Though woods, forests, &c., are the most prolific in the number of species 
they yield, barren-looking places will well repay a careful search. Insect-life teems on every 
side; and each peculiar locality produces peculiar insects. While the dry land and the level 
country should be made to yield their treasures, marshes and mountains ought to be dili- 
gently paploret and all the resources which science and experience have placed at the dis- 
nosal of the collector, for obtaining the insects in all their stages, be now energetically put 
into operation, during the height ofthe season, which will soon pass away, and with it 
many yalued species whose aquisition would have been 
“ \ consummation devoutly to be wished.”
