LEPIDOPTEKA. 



Nidderdale still awaits its entomological investigator, who, when 

 forthcoming, will doubtless find a good field for investigation in the 

 woods and on the moors, and certainly has full scope for increasing 

 the meagre list of 169 species we are able to cite. Such as we are 

 able to cite are those which have been collected about Pateley by 

 Mr. Storey, or about Birstwith by Mr. F. T. Walker. Those which 

 have occurred about Pateley are : —
