COMMUNICATIONS. 
Two Bath Whiles. — Hoping the en- 
closed notice of the capture of two speci- 
mens of Pieris Daplidiee may be of use 
to some of your readers, I am induced 
to send it for insertion in your valuable 
journal. The first w r as taken by myself 
while in pursuit of Pieris Rapa: in the 
month of June, 1856, at South Weald, 
Essex: the second by an intimate ac- 
quaintance of mine, a Mr. Harrison, 
June 22, 1856, in the neighbourhood of 
Woodford Bridge, Essex. Both being 
taken in new localities, and I believe the 
first taken in Essex, it is probable that 
some of your numerous readers may not 
find the information unworthy of notice. 
— W. H. Killingback, 10, Oldham 
Place, Bagnigge Wells Road ; July 23, 
1856. 
[We suppose these specimens are not 
females of Cardaminesi] 
Miana expolita : who ivants it P — I 
was out on the 21st, near Darlington, 
and took a quantity of Miana expolita ; 
and as I shall have duplicates to dispose 
of for exchange I should like it put in 
the ‘ Intelligencer.’ — George Malham, 
Lears Yard, Horse Market, near Dar- 
lington ; July 22, 1856. 
Argyresthia Glaucinella. — My atten- 
tion having been drawn to the habits of 
this species by Mr. Edleston’s note, at p. 
109 of the ‘Intelligencer,’ I have since 
noticed the insect : but my observations 
do not quite agree with those of that 
gentleman. I have taken Glaucinella 
several times lately on an oak at Cam- 
berwell, and have always found that 
when actually at rest it retains the usual 
position of the genus, with the head 
down. — T. W xl dman , Grove Place, Cam- 
berwell ; July 22, 1856. 
Captures near Neivliaven. — Within the 
last month I have taken the following: — 
Argynnis Euphrosyne, 
„ Aglaia, 
„ Adippe, 
*Acronycta aceris, 
* ,, ligustri, 
Tryphsena interjecta, 
Agrotis puta, 
* „ pulris, 
*Hadena persicariee. 
Of those marked * I have a few to spare. 
— J. J. Reeve, Neichaven, Sussex ; July 
22, 1 856. 
[We hope Mr. Reeve’s next commu- 
nication will announce that he has “a 
few to spare” of Callimorpha Hera. The 
pen of a Northern Divine is about to 
prove that Hera must be a British spe- 
cies, as it occurs in the Channel Islands 
abundantly.] 
Captures of Lepidoptera in the Isle of 
Wight. — June 14th I obtained a fine 
dark Agrotis saucia. July 1st E. Rus- 
sula and P. Falcula came to light about 
1 a. m. : I had generally supposed them 
day fliers. July 9th a fine specimen of 
Acherontia Alropos was brought to me. 
I took three specimens of the perfect in- 
sect of N. Camelina, and beat the same 
week the larvse of various sizes, from 
three-quarters of an inch to one inch 
and a quarter. — A Vecttsian ; July 22, 
1856. 
Papilio Machaon in Lancashire. — A 
specimen of this insect was found in this 
neighbourhood on the turnpike road, and 
was brought to me alive and in good 
preservation this day. — R. J. Shields, 
Hornby Parsonage, near Lancaster ; 
July 24, 1856. 
[Perhaps some reader of ours in that 
vicinity has bred superfluous specimens 
and let them fly: if so, will he please 
send us a line ?] 
Zeuzera JEsculi in the New Road . — I 
think it may be worth while to inform 
you that an extensive colony of this in- 
sect has established itself in Euston
