THE YOUNG NATURALIST. 



That the study of the parasites has begun to show signs of vitality is greatly 

 owing to the kindness of Messrs. Bridgman and Fitch, in naming bred or 

 captured specimens for ignoramuses ; I am sure I am myself greatly indebted 

 to them for such help. 



The following list shows what has been already done with the parasites of 

 our butterflies ; some notes at the end will point out what ought to be done 

 in this group.
