* Mr. Child was a clever painter of fishes, residing at Dudley, who formed a 
very good Cabinet of Insects, but proceeding to America under fallacious expecta- 
tions, he disposed of his Cabinet, and in returning to Europe, forlorn and disap- 
pointed, was shipwrecked and perished. 
t A specimen of this insect was taken flying in St. Swithin Street, Worcester, 
July, 1826. Mr. Edmunds informs me he has often seen it flying about the streets.
