M. Oh, yes ! I saw three or four fel- 
lows laughing and smoking away : they 
seemed too full of fun to do much mis- 
chief. 
F. Were they natives ? 
M. I think so. 
F. Oh ! then I’m not much afraid ; 
the Lancashire collectors have so much 
“brag” in them, that I never fancy they 
do much work. 
M. Very true ; they’re precious like 
Yankees. 
F. Well, it is time I went to my 
siesta, I’ve found a snugly-sheltered leaf. 
Mind you keep a sharp look-out, and let 
me know if any one comes. 
M. Good gracious! here’s some one 
been standing behind us taking notes all 
the time. 
F. You don’t say so ! if it gets into 
print — 
M. Why then we shall have the 
Lancashire collectors down upon us for 
your making game of them. 
F. Perhaps they’ll be annexing us to 
their collections. 
Notes and Queries, by J. 0. West- 
wood, Esq. 
Raspberry feeding -larva . — I have just 
had brought me some caterpillars, about 
an inch long and moderately robust, 
which were found feeding upon rasp- 
berry-leaves, the cluster of eggs from 
which they produced being of large size, 
and fixed at the end of one of the leaves: 
they are jet black, slightly clothed with 
grayish hairs ; the head with two con- 
verging slender yellow hues on the face ; 
each of the segments of the body with a 
transverse series of about six round 
orange-coloured spots, each bearing a 
black wart and a number of short black 
spines. As I do not know such a larva, 
nor is it represented by Hiibner, 1 shall 
be glad if any of your readers can give 
me its name. — J. O. W. 
Reply to J. O. W’s query. — Mr. 
Westwood has probably discovered, by 
.this time, that his raspberry-feeder is the 
young larva of the Emperor Moth (Sa- 
turnia Pavonia-Minor) ; but this answ'er 
will perhaps be useful to some of the 
rising generation. 
Erratum. — In our last number at 
page 110, second column, line 11, for 
“ cut only a small oval case” read “ cut 
out a small oval case.” 
Cabinet for Sale. — For sale, a 
14 -drawer mahogany insect- cabinet, 
corked and glazed (to be sold on reason- 
able terms). To be seen at 1, Bedford 
Street, York Street, Walworth.
