CAPTURES. 
Lepidopteba. 
Captures at Folkestone, Dover and 
Ventnor. — Ii was my intention to have 
sent you, long ago, a list of my captures 
between the 25th of August and the 15th 
of September last, during an excursion 
to Folkestone, Dover and Ventnor, but 
business engagements have so occupied 
my time that I have only just completed 
an arrangement of the species. I now 
beg to send you the following list, which 
is not so perfect as 1 could wish, nor the 
species comprised therein so rare as I 
could desire to place before your readers. 
The place of capture is indicated by the 
letter F., D. or V., signifying Folkestone, 
Dover or Ventnor: where no such letter 
appears I am uncertain at which of those 
places the insect was captured. A few 
insects taken on the 1st and 2nd of 
August are included in the list and are 
indicated by an asterisk.
