THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
impossible to say wbat species of moth it 
had been, but from its size it most likely 
had been A. My r Lilli ; from its bleached 
and dried appearance it must have been 
dead more than a year, and yet this dry 
carcase enabled me to catch as many 
specimens of this lively little species as 
my boxes would contain in a very few 
minutes. I regret that at the time I did 
not think of trying whether a fresh corpse 
possessed the same power of attraction. — 
Rev. John Bristow, Tinahely, County 
Wicklow ; July 27. 
Peronea Shepherdanu . — I have bred 
this species from larvae found in Wicken 
Fen, feeding in the young shoots of 
Spircea Ulmaria. Larva green, with 
brownish patches down the back. — 
Thomas Brown, 13, King's Parade, 
Cambridge ; July 27.

There are many rare insects not in this 
list which would also be very acceptable; 
but parties not adhering to it should 
certainly write before despatching them, 
for we cannot otherwise undertake to 
reply. — F. P. & E. R. Johnson, Wood- 
burn , Si. Saviour's, Jersey. 
Callimorpha Jacobaa . — We shall be 
happy to supply lame of this species to 
any gentleman, on receipt of a suitable 
box with return postage. — C.&J. Ienn, 
Mr. G. Bartlett's, Thames Dillon, Surrey ;

Nolodonta Larva. — I have some larvae 
of N. Ziczac, but am in want of a few 
more to keep them company. I have 
larv* of N. Dromedarius to offer in ex- 
change to any person who may have 
some to spare, and will pay postage both 
ways. — J. Steele, High Street, Congle-

happy to supply applicants with either 
larvae or pup* of this species. — Thomas

July 27. 
Exchange. — I have Acherontia Atropos, 
and will exchange a pair for a pair of 
Apatura Iris or Sphinx Convolvuli. Mine 
were reared from the pup*, and are in 
excellent condition, and the insects I re- 
ceive must also be in fine condition. 
Gentlemen wishing to exchange had 
better write before sending, to prevent 
disappointment. I have pup* of Agriopis 
Aprilina, and persons in want of it may 
have it sent by sending a small box and 
return postage. — W.Culvebwell, Thorp 
Perrow, Bedale, Yorkshire ; July 2d. 
Stock exhausted. — I have more ap- 
plicants for larvae of Sphinx Liguslri 
than I can supply. To those who do not 
receive larva: this week I will return the 
postage stamps sent, without the box, as 
some have got broken in the post, and 
most of them are not worth w r hat they 
will cost posting back, unless I hear to 
to the contrary before the 10th of August. 
— W. H. Taylok, Tolson Street, Sunny 
Bank, Leeds ; July 26.
