Notes on Scottisn Le,ido,tera, ^c.^MacaHa notaU in Sco«ancJ.-This insect^ 
not hitherto, I believe, recorded as a Scottish species, has turned up ^^l^^^^^f'^ | 
district. As far as I am aware, it is not found even in the north of England, pe - 
haps not farther north than Staffordshire. I should be glad of mformat.on on th.s 
^"""^ mania .inetaria (Ir^^nneaia) has, to the best of my knowledge, only been 
found at Eannoch. This district is a second British locality for thxs very local 
snecies It is not uncommon in this neighbourhood. 
' ;: cMus fas^oMs also occurs here, and has, I suppose for the first t.me een 
bred. I reared a specimen from a pupa found under the bark of a fallen bn-ch-t. ee 
on the wood of which tree the larva probably feeds. I have also bred Quea^us 
Ic^vigaius and Pissodes vini from pupae found under bark of pme trees. 
The following additions and corrections are necessary to my note of the 
Lepidoptera at Eannoch, last year :— A^riUinTinl 
The larv. of " Acronyctamyric. r produced only A. ^enyantlndrs. Additional 
species are, Cero,acna or, bred from pupa found at a poplar. ^^f^^^f^lZl^i
