THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
OBSERVATIONS. 
Depressaria Larvce . — lu reference to 
your remarks ou the liabits of these in- 
sects, I may mention that I once found 
in autumn a young Depressaria larva 
between united leaves of Dictamnus albus, 
but whether it belonged to D. Dictam- 
nella or to D. furvella I cannot say. 
Early in May of this year we found quite 
young larvae of D. Libanotidella and 
D. Hofmanni, whence I conclude the 
eggs of both these species are laid in the 
spring. — Dr. Oxtmar Hofmann, Ratis- 
hon ; June 8. 
Nepticula Ulmivora. — I bred lately 
fro'm elm, larvae similar to those which I 
sent you last autumn, a species which I 
presume to be N. Ulmivora. It is very 
brilliant, of the size of Maryinicolella. 
The basal portion of the anterior wings 
is bronzy till close to the silver fascia, 
but with a reddish tint, as in Bohemannia 
quadrimaculella. The costa is slightly 
■purplish, and the silvery fascia, placed 
far beyond the middle of the wing, ex- 
j)ands towards the inner margin ; the 
apex of the wing is violet. The head is 
black ; the antennae are whitish at the 
base, then black to the midfile, with the 
tips white. The last character does not 
occur in N. Maryinicolella. Larva; of 
N. Malella^ 0.vyacanlkella and Gralio- 
sella are already fed up here. — E. Fo- 
LOGNE, Brussels ; June 7. 
EXCHANGE. 
Anlhrocera Lonicera . — Owing to the 
late season, the Lonicerce are only in the 
larva instead of the pupa state. If any 
of my applicants would prefer them in 
the larva state I will forward them on 
their writing to say so. I hope to send 
off the pupa; in about a fortnight.— 11. E. 
RftAMELD, St. John's Parso7iaye, Mans- 
Jield ; June l(i. 
Colenphora Badiipennclla. — I have 
now answered all my correspondents ex- 
cept one, who has omitted to send his 
address; if he will please to forward it 
he will oblige — T. Sayer, 1(5, Waterloo 
Street, llnggerstone, N. E. ; June 18. 
Duplieate Larva;. — I have a number 
of larvas of Liparis Dispar and Suturnia 
Carpini to spare, and shall be happy to 
give them to any collector who may ap- 
ply for them, either personally or ou re- 
ceipt of a box with return postage. I 
have about five hundred. — T. Hague, 
Dog and Partridge, Stalegbridge ; June 12. 
Larva; wanted. — As 1 am making 
drawings of the larvae of Lepidoptera, 
1 should feel very much obliged to any 
one who could let me have three or four 
larvae of any of the undermentioned. 
I would either return the imago when 
bred or would endeavour to make some 
return for them, and would of course pay 
all expense of postage. I should not re- 
quire more than the number I have 
named, as I have the perfect insects of 
most of them.
