CAPTUKES. 
Lepidoptera. 
Ccenonympha Davus in North Wales . — 
I learn from Mr. Doubleday that he had 
specimens of this insect from the late 
Richard Weaver, which were captured 
in Wales. — H. T. Stainton; Oct. 25. 
The Larva of Sphinx Convolvuli . — On 
the 1st inst. I found a dead larva of this 
species. This at once inducqfl me to 
make a further search, the food-plant 
being abundant in the neighbourhood, 
but I did not succeed until the 8ih, when 
I was fortunate enough to capture one 
full fed : it descended on the following 
day. I may also state that the perfect 
insect has occurred here this season, but 
these are the only larvae that have as yet 
been taken. — W. H. Hayward, Chapel 
Street, Penzance ; October 18. 
Heliothis Armigera . — On the 5th inst. 
I captured a fine female, and on the 9th 
Mr. M'Arthur took a male; two or three 
other specimens were also taken about 
the same time. — Thomas Thorncroft, 
87, North Lane, Brighton; Oct. 18. 
Heliothis Armigera, ffc . — During the 
last three weeks I have succeeded in 
capturing two specimens of Heliothis 
Armigera, one at ivy blossom, the other 
sitting on the window. I have also taken 
the following species at ivy : — 
Aporophyla Australis 
Noctua Glareosa 
Polia Flavicincta 
Epunda Nigra 
... Liclienea 
- Xylina Petrificata.

Captures in Sulherlandshire. — My 
brother and myself having spent a month 
in Sutherlandsbire, perhaps some notice 
of the insects we captured there may be 
of interest; we were, however, too late in 
the season to expect much. 
Cloantha Solidaginis,

Celaena Haworthii, 
Nonagria Fulva (in hundreds), 
Noctua Glareosa, 
Authocelis Rufina,
