and P. Alexis appeared to-day. P. Casiata 
at rest on stones; it is impossible to see 
when they are sitting there, but they 
may be found by tapping rocks, when 
they are easily disturbed. 
Aug. 14. Between Loch Lagtran and 
Dalwhinnie C. Davus very plentiful, but 
worn. We also secured three A. Aglaia 
and one E. Blandina during the day. 
C. achutinata plentiful on moors near 
Dalwhinnie. 
Aug. 15. C. olivaria and P. casiata 
were all that we found between Dal- 
whinnie and Tumrael Bridge, owing no 
doubt to bad weather. 
Aug. 16. C. didymaria frequent on 
the heaths between Tummel Bridge and 
Aberfeldy. 
Aug. 18. E. populata swarming on 
Rannoch Moors : another S. Carpini 
larva we also turned up. 
Aug. 19. Explored the moors for larvse, 
but L. Quercus, var. Callunce (several), 
N. Carpini (2) and L. Rubi (literally in 
bushels) were all that rewarded our 
search. 
Aug. 20. Luib. Four specimens of 
the pretty C. prunaia we secured in the 
garden of the inn. Id. proboscidalis and 
immanata also frequent. 
Aug. 21. Loch Earn. Another speci- 
men of P. Artaxerxes we secured to-day 
(much worn), two T. Quercus, one or two 
Didymaria and a few E. Chenopodiata, 
P. Alexis , C. Phloeas and C. pump lulus for 
any one who might have wanted them. 
Aug. 22. A male S', papilionaria in 
moderately good condition, near Comrie. 
Wet towards evening. 
Among my captures I find three spe- 
cimens of E. ericetaria and one of S. 
anomala, but I have no record of the 
locality in which they were taken. —

Neuroptera. 
Phryganidce in the Fens . — As it may 
probably interest some of your readers, 
I now send a list of the Phryganidae 
taken in the fens during last summer, 
with a few observations respecting them, 
as far as I am able. 
Phryganea Grandis, L. This I saw 
for the first time on the 12th of June; 
common at Aldeby and abundant at Ran- 
worth. Comes freely to sugar, and flies 
along the ditches at dark and all night 
long. Last seen on the 12th of August. 
P. Varia, F. Not common. 
Agrypnia Pagetana, Curt. B. E. Of 
this rare insect I took two specimens ; 
the first at Ranworth, on the 28th of 
August, at midnight, on the Broad, flew 
to light, — a poor specimen; it was ex- 
hibited at the November Meeting of the 
Entomological Society of London, and is 
now in Mr. Unwin’s collection : the other, 
a fine specimen, was taken by the river 
Waveney, near Beccles Steam-Mill, on 
the 12th of October, and is now in Mr. 
M‘Lachlan’s collection. 
Limnophilus Pellucidus, Oliv. Four 
specimens from the 5th to the 20th of 
July. I also saw a specimen taken by 
the Rev. J. Farr. 
L. Atomarius, F. Two specimens on 
the 15th of July. 
L. Vitratus, De Geer. Common from 
the 15th of September till late into 
November. 
L. Marmoratus, Curt. Phil. May. 123. 
Several specimens beaten out of hedges 
and firs on the 20th of April: it seems 
common everywhere, and I have found 
it two miles from water. 
L. Rhombicus, L. From the 14th of 
June to the 20th of August. 
L. Flavicornis, F. Very common in 
the marshes from the 14th of June to the 
20th of July. This appears to be found 
a long way from any water ; it flies at 
midnight, and comes very freely to 
sugar. 
L. Concentricus, Kolenali. A species 
new to this country. Much resembles 
Flavicornis in its general appearance, but 
its habits are different. It is found iu
