NOTES, CAPTURES, &c. 



P. Populi in October. — On page 75, of 

 the present volume, Mr. H. A. Andrews 

 suggested that Mr. Gregson was in error 

 in stating that P. populi emerged in October. 

 On Saturday, the 15th Inst., Mr. A. Woods 

 brought me a living P. populi to name, which 

 he had just taken, confirming Mr. Gregson's 

 statement. — John E. Robson, West Hart- 

 i lepool. 



V. URTiCiE Double-brooded. — On Octo- 

 ber 1st, I found a batch of larvae of V.Urtica 

 on a bed of Nettles, at Cold Knuckles, near 

 Foggy Furze. Brought six home, five of 

 which hung up the following day. Four of 

 the perfect insects emerged on the 23rd 

 Inst., one died in pupa, and the remaining 

 larva, a small one, died October 23rd. — 

 A. Woods, West Hartlepool, October 24th.
