THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
5 
of Orohus niger at Miiggendorf; three 
specimens of the lovely G. Imperialetla 
made their appearance here in the warm 
room the middle of March. Nearly 
three-fourths of our larvae were infested 
with ichneumons, which made their ap- 
pearance last autumn. — F. Hofmann, 
Ratisbon; March 28, 1861. 
[We are sorry to say that no G. Im- 
perialella have as yet been developed 
from the pupae so kindly sent by Herr 
Hofmann last summer ; the larvae we did 
not have the pleasure of seeing’, as all 
were in cocoon or devoured by ichneu- 
mons before they reached us. Possibly, 
as in the larva of Gracilaria Omissella, 
the coral-red colour is only assumed just 
before the change to the pupa state. The 
feeding larva of G. Omissella is pale 
green. The Orohus miners were an- 
nounced (Int. vol. viii. p. 150) as a pro- 
blematical Cosmopleryx ? and they are 
noticed in the Ent. Ann. 1861, p. 117, 
as Enigma No. 83.] 
Adda Cuprella. — I.attended at Wim- 
bledon Common on tbe 17th of February 
last, with the intention of searching be- 
neath the sallows for the cases of Adda 
Cuprella, but, to my sorrow, when I 
arrived at the spot where I took the imago 
last year, I found that the whole of the 
sallows had been cut down and a house 
built on the site ! — C. Healy, 74, Napier 
Street, Hoxton ; March 27, 1861. 
Blotch-making Nepticula Larvae in the 
Leaves of Agrimonia Eupatoria. — Having 
sent the empty mined leaves of the blotch 
maker to several Micro-Lepidopterists, it 
occurred to me that possibly they mif;ht 
(on seeing the account of N. Aurelia 
having been bred by you from larvas sent 
by me to you on the 21st of October last) 
say, “Oh! its only Aurelia and so 
neglect to make a search, they not being 
in possession of the fact that the blotch- 
makers were collected on the 28th and 
sent to you on the 29th of October. 
I mention this lest any one should assume 
that Aurelia having been bred from the 
Agrimonia is the solution of Enigma 90', 
p. 118, Ent. An. 1861. The larvae noted 
as that Enigma has not yet been bred. —

EXCHANGE. 
Hypercompa Dominula. — I have larvae 
of this insect, which I should be glad to 
exchange with any one for the larvae of 
A. Villica. A line or two by post before 
sending will oblige. Last season I sup- 
plied a number of correspondents with 
either ova or larvae of T. Populeti : if 
any of them need another supply I should 
be glad to hear from them. — J. Steele, 
High Street, Congleton ; March 26, 1861. 
Exchange. — I shall be glad to exchange 
impregnated eggs of T. Populeti, S. II- 
lustraria, C. Exoleta, S. Satellitia and 
C. Neustria for those of other species, or 
larvae or pupae, especially of any Catocala. 
Those not hearing from me within a 
week to conclude I am not in want of 
the species offered. — W. H. Taylor, 
Tolson St., Sunny Bank, Leeds ; Mar. 26. 
Exchange. — I have flue specimens of 
the following : — 
Colias Edusa, 
Vanessa Atalanta, 
... Urticae, 
Chelonia Caja, 
Arctia Menthastri, 
Melanthia Ocellata, 
Mamestra Brassicae, 
Tripbaena Pronuba, 
to exchange for —
