THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER.

TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
J. H. — For an account of the Gordi- 
aceae, or intestinal worms, see ‘ Intelli- 
gencer,’ vol. v. p. 47. 
W. W., Oundle. — Ditaria of Donovan 
is Bajularia, Man. ii. 36. Albicillala, 
you will find under that name, Id. p. 99. 
Your Blue is probably only a variety of 
the female Alexis. 
J. T. — Your larvae of Pericallia Sp- 
ring aria will be full fed in May, 1860, 
provided you can keep them alive through 
the winter. 
CAPTURES. 
Lepidoptera. 
Colias Hyale. — My son captured, about 
the 18th of last month, when in search of 
Aporia Cratcegi , a fine female specimen 
of C. Hyale. S. Dealbaria and E. Rus- 
sula have been taken rather freely. — 
J. Tyrer, Melville Hospital, Chatham; 
July 2. 
Colias Edusa. — I beg to inform you 
that I captured a Clouded Yellow ( Colias 
Edusa ) yesterday : it was sipping nectar 
from the blossom of a clover plant on our 
railway-bank at Fimber. The species was 
numerous on this line of railway last 
year, but later. — R. Mortimer, Fimber, 
Mahon; June 28. 
Colias Edusa. — I took a male on the 
30th of June, and a female on the 1st 
of this month. I have also taken Melitcea 
Cinxia, Artemis and Alhalia, Argynnis 
Paphia and Aglaia, Aporia Cratcegi, and 
many others that are not worth troubling 
you to mention ; I have most of these in 
duplicate, which I shall offer later in the 
season. — J. C. Bryant, Lipson Terrace, 
Plymouth ; July 1. 
Spilodes Palealis. — While at Brighton, 
on the 15th of June, I swept a specimen 
of Spilodes Palealis, also Philca Irrorella, 
Homceosoma Sinuella, Coleophora Onos- 
mella, &c. — H enry Aris, 7, Corporation 
Row, Clerkenwell, E.C.; July 2. 
Lithocolletis Scopariella. — This local 
species has appeared in plenty on the 
railway bank here, among the broom 
bushes; I took a specimen accidentally, 
and on ascertaining its value at once 
searched for more, but found that, though 
common, the late thunder-storms had 
seriously damaged it, and the specimens 
were not worth setting. I hope that my- 
self or some one may discover the larva 
before next season. — R. M‘Lachlan, 
Forest Hill ; July 4. 
Captures near Oundle. — Having some 
pupils in want of an amusement for their 
leisure hours, I suggested Entomology, 
which has been taken up with some 
degree of spirit. As I observed, in a late 
number of the ‘ Intelligencer,’ a complaint 
that captures were not being reported as 
they ought to be, are any of the following 
worth recording ? I have added the dates 
of capture of the first of each sort.
