Change of Address. — I leave Scar- 
borough in a day or two, and shall 
not be able to give any fixed address 
for some time. — W. K. Bissill, 
6, Brunswick Terrace , Scarborough ; 
April 4. 
TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
Chloroform. — A correspondent en- 
quires, “ Can you inform me of anything 
that will kill moths quicker than chloro- 
form?” Adding, “I find the greatest 
trouble in killing small moths, such as 
the Geometrina and Tortricina, which it 
seems almost impossible to kill, as I have 
given one chloroform enough to kill three 
or four butterflies, and looking at it an 
hour or so after have found it still 
alive.” We cannot understand this; there 
must be some mismanagement. We use 
bruised laurel-leaves. 
CAPTURES. 
COLEORTERA. 
Anchomenus gracilis in Yorkshire . — 
I have taken several specimens of this 
insect, in company with A. pelidnus, 
under bark of prostrate fir trees, in Rain- 
cliff Bog, near here. I met with both 
insects last year, but the specimens were 
very few in number, compared with what 
I have taken this year. — W. K. Bissill, 
laic of fci, Brunswick Terrace, Scar- 
borough. 
Beetles at Westerham . — I have taken 
the annexed list of Coleoptera, on visits, 
at various times, to the secluded neigh- 
bourhood of Westerham. I have omitted 
common species which occur everywhere. 
No doubt there are many scarce species 
which I have not yet detected, aud I hope 
in a future list I may be able to 
name some. I may mention that the 
country in this part is extremely beau- 
tiful, with extensive woods of fir, beech 
and oak.
