THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
It may be as well to remind those who 
have not seen Mr. Greene’s observations 
in the ‘ Zoologist’ for September, that 
for some larvte it is useless to beat : the 
larvae of Clostera, Ceropacha ( Cyrnato - 
phora ) and Tethea feed between united 
leaves, and must therefore be looted for. 
If two entomologists go in pursuit of 
larvae, one with strong arms, the other 
with sharp eyes, though the former may 
bring home the greater number, the latter 
will have got all the best ones. 
The Entomologist’s Weekly Intel- 
ligencer may be obtained 
Wholesale, of E. Newman, 9, Devon- 
shire Street, Bishopsgate; and of 
W. Kent 6c Co., 51 & 52, Pater-

T. Smithson. — To destroy Mites . — Get 
a mixture of equal parts of oil of thyme, 
oil of anise and spirit of wine, and with a 
camel ’s-hair brush put it on the bodies of 
the infected insects, and put a drop or 
two in the corners of your boxes.

J. Head. — Collect more Idyperanthus, 
and you will find hardly two are alike: 
“ A little learning is a dangerous thing," 
and the same may be said of only two or 
three specimens. You must see a num- 
ber in order to learn a species. If Ligustri
