 distributed around tbe coast in winter, but very local during the breeding 

 season.

 Part IIL 



Since the publication of my former notes on Norfolk Entomology, in 

 the first volume of the Naturalist, the occurrence of several other species 

 has passed within my notice, and with the kind assistance and much 

 valuable information I have received from several of my entomological 

 friends, whose names I shall not omit to mention in the course of my 

 observations, I am thus enabled to offer information on the entomology of 

 Norfolk in general, it having been my intention at the first outset to confine 

 these liotes chiefly to my own personal observations. 



DiURNL 



Goliad Edusa. This species, now rarely met With, formerly occurred pretty 

 abundantly in this neighbourhood ; my friend Mr. H. Summons, says 

 he can recollect the time when he has taken upwards of twenty examples 

 in an hour or two*
