THE LEPIDOPTERA OF ARPAIST. 



By Henry Lupton. 



Believing that the Lepidoptera of the Isle of Arran are not much 

 known, I purpose giving a short description of what we observed 

 there during a few days in July this year. Mr. G. H. Kenrick of 

 Birmingham, Mr. W. Buckton of Leeds, and myself spent from the 

 6th to the IGth of July on the island ; with one or two slight excep- 

 tions we had fine weather, and generally a gentle breeze. We made 

 Brodick the head-quarters for the first three days, and afterwards slept 

 at Corrie, six miles further up the coast. As we had no information 

 respecting localities for insects, we were unable to do so well as we 

 might have done, had we known where to work for diff'erent 

 insects. The total number of species observed is divided into 13 

 butterflies, 15 bombyces, 26 noctuse, and 32 geometry; we did not 

 collect micros.
