The following is a copy of the annual 
Report : — 
“In presenting the third annual Re- 
port, it is satisfactory to observe the 
steady progress of the Society. During 
the past year thirteen new members 
have joined, whilst it has only sustained 
the loss of one, leaving an increase of 
twelve members, as compared with the 
corresponding period of last year. The 
ordinary monthly meetings have been 
well attended, and many objects of inte- 
rest have been brought under the notice 
of the members, amongst which was a 
specimen of A. Rufina with singular ab- 
dominal appendages, not previously no- 
ticed, but which it is stated subsequent 
investigation has shown to be common to 
other species of this genus. 
“ From a record kept of the captures 
during the past year a list has been pre- 
pared, showing that five hundred and 
twenty-three species of Lepidoptera have 
been taken by the members, of which the 
following are additions to the previously 
recorded Fauna of this locality, viz.: — 
P. Monacha, A. Inornala, C. Sparsata, 
C. Bicuspis( pupa), A. Connexa, A. Pra- 
cox, C. Solidaginis, S. Slicticalis, A. 
Cnicana, P. Ruboricolella, A. Niveus and 
M. Pinguedinella ; all of which, except 
the pupa of C. Bicuspis, have been ex- 
hibited at the meetings. The following 
are also amongst the captures of 1859: — 
A. Atropos, S. Convolvuli, S. Ligustri, 
M. Bombyliformis, S. Culiciformis, L. 
Helveola, E. Vespertaria, E Fuscantaria, 
G. Papilionaria, P. Bajularia, A. Rubri- 
cala, A. Alni (larva), A. Leporina, A. Li- 
gustri, L. Pudorina, M. Abjr-.cta, T.Opima , 
T. Populeli, O. Suspecta, H. Dipsacea, 
P. Glaucinalis, Sec. 
“ In consequence of the increasing 
attendance of members, bi-monthly 
meetings have been appointed for the 
autumn and winter months. 
“Papers and discourses on objects of 
interest have been given, amongst which 
was a discourse “On the Proper Method 
of Setting Insects,” by the Rev. F. O. 
Morris (President), and a paper “ On the 
Distinctions of certain Species of Lepi- 
doptera,” by Robert Anderson (Secretary). 
Several useful entomological and bo- 
tanical works have been added to the 
library. The members beg to acknow- 
ledge the kindness of Mr. W. Winter aud 
the Rev. F. 0. Morris for donations of 
local insects for distribution. 
“ Although Lepidoptera at present ap- 
pears to absorb the attention of the 
members, it is hoped that in future other 
branches will receive due attention, and 
that parties studying them will not be 
backward to join the Society, as the Com- 
mittee will always endeavour to add
