repaid us for our hard work with the 
sheet. We have also taken some very fine 
Acidalia Liurnaia at dusk : this species is 
veiy nearly allied to /luersata, and would 
he easily taken for it : I have two females, 
hut as yet neither has deposited eggs. — 
W. Ihomas, Court 7, I'orn Cross Lane,

JJoinys ill Ha/es. — Last week I went 
to Llangollen, the locality my old friend 
iMr. Ashworth used to work, for the ex- 
press purpose ol endeavouriug to find 
Some ol his lost species. With very bad 
weather, 1 was compelled to restrict mv- 
selt to places where an umbrella would 
go, and Irequemly to take advantage of 
a hedge or tree lor extra shelter: during 
one of these expedients, 1 had the good 
lorlune to find the wing ol GEcophora 
yrandis in a spider’s web, and afterwards 
to find the perfect insect, and on another 
such occasion J lell in with the larva- 
case ol CoLeophora saturalella, upon and 
near the bioom, which grows so freely all 
around, aud have since bred the insect 
Iroui them. I think they are scarcely so 
fine as some bred from pupte kindly sent 
to me liom London this spring. — C. S. 
Gkegson, Fleteher Grove, Stanley, near 
Liverpool ; July 22. 
OUSSRVATIONS. 
Probable Hybrids. — On the morning 
ol the 25th instant 1 was looking round 
my breeding-cages, when in the first I 
saw a female of Fsilura Monacha out 
alone, aud in another cage three males 
of Ilypoyymna Dispar were out; into the 
cage in which was the female iMonaclia 
1 admitted a male of Dispar, and about 
ten minutes past 9 p. M. 1 was delighted 
to see them in cop.; ihe good lady has 
laid eggs, but very .sparingly. I never 
heard of a similar occurrence hefoie. —

EXCHANGE. 
Stiipnotia Salicis. — I have several 
larvae of this species to spare, and I shall 
be happy to forward some to any gentle- 
man who may be in want of them, on 
receipt of a box and return postage. If 
any gentleman has anything to ofl'er in 
return I will pay the postage back. 
Almost anything (larvae, pupae or imago) 
will be accepiable, as my wants are very 
numerous. — R. T. Chaloner, Newton 
Kyme Rectory, near Tadcaster, York- 
shire. 
Phraymatobia Fuliyinosa, — Fearing 
that the larvie of P. F’uliyinosa, sent by 
me last September to many of my ento- 
mological brethren, might not be reared, 
as was the case with my own, I have this 
day forwarded to each individually a few 
more, about the reaiing of which I have 
no doubt, as some, only a few days older, 
have already gone into the chrysalis. —
