ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
Subscribers who do not receive the 
‘Intelligencer’ in due course, are 
requested to forward their complaints to 
E. Newman, 9, Devonshire Street, 
Bishopsgale Street. 
Pressure of matter compels us to hold 
oix’r several interesting communications. 
The subscribers’ copies of Nos. 1, 2, 3 
and 4 of the ‘ Intelligencer,’ were posted 
on the day of publication before noon. 
The following numbers, i.e. 5 — 16, were 
posted on the Friday afternoon prior to 
publication. — Edward Newman. 
Henry Doubleday’s List of British 
Lepidoptera has been out of print more 
than a year. — Edward New'man. 
A Youthful Lover of Science at 
Harrow has forgotten to enclose his 
name and address. 
T. C., Ripon. — We know of no such 
soap. Bruised laurel-leaves w’e find 
answer our purpose : but for killing in- 
stantly large Sphinges, &c., a saturated 
solution of oxalic acid is advisable ; a 
pen dipped in it and inserted in the 
under part of the thorax, between the 
legs, will be found very efficacious. 
Chrysophanus Hippothoe. — The 
variety peculiar to this country has no 
continental locality. We fear you have 
hardly read Mr. Wollaston’s book with 
the attention it deserves. 
Psyche eusca. — Cases received: they 
are those of Fumea nilidella. 
J. J. R. — Your large cases are Fumea 
nitulella : the small ones we cannot re- 
cognise. 
W. B. H., Norwood. — The varieties 
of Caja are endless : it occurs almost 
entirely white, and almost entirely black 
with all intermediate varieties. Such a 
variety as yours is, however, not common. 
Many collect for years without ever 
meeting a good variety. 
T. A. P. — We observe the discretionary 
silence, not wishing to expose you to the 
chance of a pelting. 
R. H. F. — Thanks for the information. 
W. S., Rotherham. — The insect is 
Grapholita naevana; it is very common: 
we were not aware the larva fed on 
holly. Name shall be added to the list. 
Tyro. — Ca. in the ‘Manual’ stands 
for Cambridge : it was omitted in the 
list of abbreviations. 
Accrington. — A letter dated from
