[Since T sent the above note my specimens of P. Oeryon have been ver 
Dr. Knaggs. I forgot also to state that Nemcophila 2ylantaginis has turned up] 
I caught several specimens in a wood in June. — H. U., 1 3th August, 1869.3 
Captures at Folkestone. — Two days collecting at Folkestone, at the begiij 
of this month, resulted in my having captured the following : — In the War^ 
obtained Sesia chrysidiformis, S. ingratella, a probably new Ephix>piphora, i 
full fed larva of S. eupliorliana ; and, along the Sandgate Road, T. Bondii, D, 
dorsana, C. conterminana, and 0. citrana. L. Adonis swarmed everywhere oa 
chalk, and S. vrrorella was sufficiently common in the Warren. Mr. Ullyett 
discovered a locality there for P. glohularice and Geryon, which both ho and m 
Purday have taken. Mr. Purday kindly took me to the spot, and I had the pleasui 
of seeing both species alive for the first time. — Howard Vaughan, 12th July, 186: 
Sesia chrysidiformis Ired. — This species made its first appearance in my breedin 
cages yesterday, from larvae I found at Folkestone last autumn. They are a 
remarkably large specimens. — Id. 
Notes on some of the British species of Psychidce. — I have lately bred about 
dozen specimens, <? ? , of Psyche anicanella, Bruand. It feeds on the gi 
lichen on buckthorn stems at Hampstoad. Some years since Mr. Tompkins fc 
a larva, or rather a case, and bred from it what I believe was understood to' 
salicicolella of Bruand. I have hunted for this species ever since without succesi 
till last year, when I first bred a <? , and then a $ , which latter at once overtlirow 
tho salicicolella theory, as Bruand's species of that name has the anal tuft of th 
female brown, whereas this was white.* These two species — salicicolella an 
anicanella — are very distinct, and different from all others save P. fusca, their caset 
being made with the materials placed crosswise, and no lengthy straws or gras 
are used. I send a list of the different species of these very interesting littl 
insects that I possess, either as images or case. I have most of the females i 
alcohol.
