Anaitis Plagiaria, 
Heliothis Marginata, 
Amphipyra Pyramidea, 
Catocala Nupta (3), 
Anticlea Rubidata, 
Rivula Sericealis, &c. 
All the C. Edusa are in very excellent 
condition. I believe it is the first time 
that H. Marginata has been found near 
Bristol. — Samuel Tibbs, jun., 9, Fins- 
bury Place South, Finsbury Square, E.C.; 
October 8. 
Captures near Llandaff, South Wales . — 
Gonepteryx Rhamni. Not very abun- 
dant; females rather scarce. Beginning 
of August. 
Colias Edusa. Very common in one 
locality, and sparingly distributed in 
some other places. I did not take one 
female. 
Aporia CraUegi. Tolerably common 
in one locality. June. 
Anthocharis Cardamines. Common. 
Arge Galathea. A single specimen 
taken iu a field. I have never seen it 
since. 
Lasiommata iEgeria. Common at one 
place near here. August. 
Hipparchia Semele. One specimen on 
the sea-coast at Font-y-Gary. 
... Hyperanthus. Common at 
the same place. July and August. 
Cynthia Cardui. Local and never 
plentiful. Beginning of August. 
Vanessa Atalanta. Common. As far 
as I can ascertain, a brood of this in- 
sect came out at the beginning of this 
montli. 
... Io. Not very common. July 
to October. 
... Antiopa. Saw one in an 
orchard six miles from here, but could 
not capture it. 
Grapla C-album. Quite common. 
Argynnis Paphia. Common at the 
village of VVenvoe, near here. July and 
August. 
... Aglaia. Took one specimen 
last year, but have never seen it since. 
Thecla. This genus appears to be ex- 
ceedingly scarce here, as the only thing 
I have taken is one female Quercus . 
Chrysophanus Phlseas. Tolerably com- 
mon. End of July. 
Polyommatus Argiolus. Once taken at 
Wenvoe. Not common. 
... Agestis. Not uncom- 
mon in several places. J uly and August. 
Pamphila Sylvanus. Taken in a marsh 
here. End of June. 
Captures in Cumberland. — Having 
taken this season a number of Cleora 
glabraria, as well as Noclua depuncta, 
and being desirous that Cumberland 
should not be unrepresented in the pages 
of the ‘ Intelligencer,’ I have subjoined 
a list of a few of those which have come 
under my notice, peculiar to this part of 
the country, and which I hope will not 
be uninteresting to the entomological 
student. I have duplicates of those to 
which an asterisk is prefixed. 
L. Siuapis. Taken at Barn Wood in 
May and at the latter end of August. 
C. Edusa. A few have been taken 
the last two seasons throughout the 
county. 
*T. Quercus. Abundant on the oaks 
in August. About the middle of August 
they may be seen in numbers flying 
around the creeping plume-thistle ( Cir - 
cium arvense ) and other plants : I have 
noticed that the white varieties of this 
plant were seldom resorted to by insects ; 
the same may be said of the foxglove 
(Digitalis purpurea) and ling ( Calluna 
vulgaris), whose pure white varieties 
occur in the district of Armthwaite. 
*P. Alsus. Flies in May on Cowran 
Hills; on the same day may be taken 
E. Mi, E. Glyphica and S. Clathraria. 
P. Argiolus. Taken at Wetheral, in 
May. 
V. C-album. Flies in September ; often 
taken flying about the hazel. 
S. Davus. Common on our heaths. 
P. Linea. Taken in June. 
M. Bombyliformis. Common.
