CAPTUBES, 
Lepidopteea. 
Euchelia Jacobece. — I have just caught 
a very pretty variety of this beautiful but 
common insect, which occurs here this 
year in far greater profusion than I ever 
remember it to have occurred before. My 
specimen has the markings on the upper 
wings of a bright ochre-yellow, while the 
under wings are of a delicate buff. — 
S. Stone, Brighlhampton ; June 17. 
Cucullia Chamomillce. — I beg to in- 
form you that I have captured upwards 
of 200 larvse of this insect, some of which 
are full grown, and about entering the 
pupa state. — J. B. Rydek, 5, Navy Row, 
MoriceTown; June 11. 
Scoria Dealbata. — On the 10th and 
11th inst. Mr. H. Foster, silversmith, of 
this place, and myself, succeeded in cap- 
turing over one hundred specimens of 
the above-named rare moth, in beautiful 
condition, several of which were found on 
the high grass, just come from the pupa, 
with the wings not then developed ; and 
since Mr. Dowset and Mr. R. Down, of 
this place, have taken over fifty more at 
the same spot. — Alexander Russell, 
Ashford, Kent; June 18. 
Captures in the New Forest. — A little 
mistake was made last week at page 83, 
line 3 from top; C.reversata should have 
been Cidonia russata, and when I said 
“ T. lactearia. This and C. russata are 
the only insects common in the Forest 
this year,” I should have said “ the only 
Lepidoptera,” for, good lack ! those con- 
founded Diptera, which have such a 
liking for human blood, are common 
enough — I might say enough and to 
spare. During last week the following 
have appeared : — 
Aporia Crataegi. 1 have seen but 
three specimens ; usually common in the 
Forest by this time, and should be nearly 
over. 
Euthemonia russula. Scarce ; usually 
very common here. 
Arctia villica (1). 
Acosmetia caliginosa. Thirty-three 
specimens have fallen victims to the net 
and pin. 
Aspilates strigillaria. Common. 
Eubolia palurabaria. Do. 
— W. Farren, Brockenhurst, New Forest, 
Hants; June 17. 
Captures near Gloucester. — Among 
others I have lately captured M. Artemis 
and the rather scarce A. Baumanniana 
freely ; while, near the withy beds on the 
banks of the Severn, I have taken T. For- 
micceforme, in the same places as last 
year. P. Alsus I took in some abund- 
ance on the hills at Dursley, in spite of 
a high wind ; they were accompanied 
by N. Plantaginis, A. Euphrosyne, and, 
strange to say, that lover of damp places 
M. Artemis ; this latter species I per- 
ceived was much worn : two of its food- 
plants, scabious and plantain, were 
abundant, although at an elevation of 
several hundred feet above the vale. — 
J. Merein, Gloucester ; June 17.
