REGENT STREET, CLOUCESTER- 



AT a Meeting of the ENTOMOLOGICAL SECTION of the Yorkshire 

 Naturalists' Union, held at Leeds on January- 11th, it was decided to 

 ublrsh a LIST, with localities, &c., of the Lepidoptera of the county of 

 ork. Its compilation was placed in the hands of Mr. W. Prest, of 

 York, and myself. May I ask, therefore, that every lepidopterist who has 

 collected in any part of Yorkshire will kindly send list with localities of all 

 the species noticed, with any notes that may be of use, to me, as early as 

 convenient. I need scarcely say that all such assistance shall be fully 

 acknowledged,
