106 THE YOUNG 



While we are proposing to give these 

 monthly plates, we do not intend at 

 all to alter the price of our subscription ; 

 but we cannot, of course, undertake 

 that these plates shall be colored like 

 the others. We shall, however, be 

 able to color them, for those who 

 desire it, at a very nominal charge. 

 We hope in about two months to begin 

 our British Butterflies, and to issue 

 the first of these plates. As we shall 

 not print more than we require, will 

 those who are " thinking about sub- 

 scribing " kindly make their minds up 

 soon. Will our renders also remember 

 we yet want figures of the various 

 larva-. Among the first we shall need 

 are : A. cratcegi, C. Hyale, P. rapt, 

 L. sinapis. Others shall be named 

 from time to time. We will gratefully 

 record any assistance rendered in this 

 way, and either return the specimens 

 scut, or render any equivalent in our 

 power. AA e also want ichneumons and 

 dipterous from Butterfly larva 1 and 

 pupae. Several have already been sent 

 to us, but there must be very many 

 more. We would be glad to know if 

 any collector of British species, ever 

 bred ichneumons from the pupa of 

 V. Urticce as quoted from our French 

 contemporary. 



Before we close this article we would 

 say that we will still, as opportunity 

 offers, give woodcuts in the text to illus- 

 trate anything that can be made plainer 

 by such means.
