 (Continued froin;fpage 5839). 



Last year we published a statement of the objects of the Entomo-

 tion might be consulted, a list of the Members, and a Catalogue of 

 the desiderata as far as the new arrangement had been completed.

 Gastropacha Ilici folia, by the late Mr. Weaver. 

 Psyche Febretta, ditto. 



„ opacella, ditto.

 Acronycta strigosa^ by Mr. Doubleday and Mr. Bond. 

 Synia musculosa, by Mr. Bond. 

 Mi ana expolita by Mr. Birchall. 



Noctua glareosa, by Mr. Hague and Mr. Killingback.

Aplecta occulta, ditto.
