Miana Strigilis. In June, in Galway, 
we found beautiful light varieties of this 
species, allied to the typical form, but 
much prettier, tinged with pink, &c., and 
a few nearly double the ordinary size. 
On the coast here, in July, the same 
species made its appearance in abund- 
ance, but not a single light variety ; some 
were dark red, others olive-brown, and 
mixtures of both. 
M. Literosa. Coast, Aug. ; common. 
M. Furuncula. Do., do. All the spe- 
cimens pale brownish ochreous, without 
lines.

yeddish.

September. 
Dianthoecia Capsophila. Coast, July 
(see ‘Zoologist,’ p. 7324). 
Hadena Adusta. Galway, June. 
H. Deutina. Do., do.; abundant and 
very variable. I was repeatedly puzzled 
by seeing a Noctua hovering in the bright 
sunshine at the flowers of Lotus cornicu- 
latus, and darting rapidly away to a 
short distance, when I approached, yet I 
could never see it again when I followed 
it. At last I found out the trick : I 
watched a specimen dart away from the 
flowers and hide itself in a crevice of a 
mass of limestone (which in that neigh- 
bourhood crops out of the ground very 
much), and on examination found that it 
was this species. They must have been 
having a taste on the sly, and hurried 
away to their concealment, on being dis- 
turbed. This did not prevent them from 
paying devoted attention to the sugar in 
the evening. 
H. Pisi. Coast, July.
