116 The Naturalist. 



as is the case at Skegness and (as I also found it) in the Isle of Man. 



The foregoing list of species is certainly very meagre, but it 

 includes several very interesting ones, and there is no doubt that it 

 the district were thoroughly worked, many rarities would turn up. 

 Unfortunately there appear to be no lepidopterists residing in the 

 immediate vicinity ; but now that such facilities are given by the 

 Great Northern Kailway Company for travelling there at an excep- 

 tionally cheap rate from all our Yorkshire towns where the Company 

 enters, there is no reason why some of the members of our Union, 

 who can spare say two or three days each month from April to 

 September, besides working up our own county (which of course 

 stands first), should not do so. I am quite sure they would be well 

 rewarded, and would have the additional and greater pleasure of 

 adding to our knowledge of the fauna of a district in which so 

 little has as yet been done.
