THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
The coldness of the present summer 
has been of service in one respect, as 
we have not heard of a sing’e instance 
of the bed bug having been found this 
year in a state of activity, and though 
we are scarcely disposed to imagine 
with Mr. Walker that the race is quite 
extinct among us, still — just as in an- 
cient Rome the closing of the Temple of 
Janus, though only for a single day, 
was hailed by the acclamations of the 
multitude — we cannot refrain from con- 
gratulating the people of this country 
that in this year 1860 it has been pos- 
sible to produce a List of British Bugs 
in which the bed-bug should have no 
place.

CAPTURES. 
LEPIDOrTERA. 
Chcerocampa Celerio at Darlington . — 
I have a fine specimen of this insect, 
which was taken here on Sunday last, off 
a window-ledge, by a friend of mine, and 
was given to me. — W. Beadnell, North- 
gate, Darlington. 
Chcerocampa Celerio. — A fine specimen 
of this insect was taken at Matlock on 
the 20th ult., by a gentleman, at whose 
house I saw it last week. It was fluttering 
in the long grass and herbage beneath a 
clump of fir trees, about six o’clock in 
the evening, having evidently just 
emerged from the pupa state. My 
friend put his hat over it, but having no 
net or box at hand he was obliged to 
grasp it rather roughly with his fingers, 
nip it beneath the wings, and pin it with 
a lady’s common shawl-pin. — F. Tearle, 
Grammar School, Kettering ; Oct. 5. 
Coleoptera. 
Capture of Dinarda dentata at Wey- 
bridge. — A few days ago I had the plea- 
sure of receiving two living specimens of 
Dinarda dentata from Mr. Crotch, who 
has, I believe, taken it in some abund- 
ance: I do not know the species of ant 
in the nest of which they were found, but 
Mr. Reading has occasionally taken it in 
that of F.fusca. Yesterday I had the 
gratification of taking three examples of 
D. dentata from the nest of Formica san- 
guinea; probably this is the first time it 
has been discovered, in this country, in 
the nest of this species of ant. Formica 
sanguinea is by no means rare at and in 
the neighbourhood of Weybridge. As I 
only devoted about half an hour tp 
searching I am inclined to think that
