Lepidoi’teba. 
Sati/rus Semele . — On Tluivsday last I

more, at the same place. — E. S. Dewick,

here, in fair condition, on the 1st inst. — 
Anthony Mason, Grange, Newton-in- 
Cartmel. 
Strange Locality for Hypogymna Dis- 
par . — This morning I observed a moth 
flying swiftly along Lower East Smith- 
field, and knowing it could not be the 
common Oxgyia Antiqua, both from its 
size and mode of flight, I gave chase, 
forgetting the figure I should cut before 
the Continental voyageurs, who were 
flocking to St. Katharine’s Wharf, en 
route for Hamburg and the Rhine, and 
captured what proved to be a good male 
specimen of H. Dispar. Two months 
ago I bred this insect from the egg, so 
that both tbe time of appearance and 
locality seem unusual. — H. Stanley, 
15, Hamilton Street, Camden Town; 
Septetnber 10. 
Litliosia Helveola . — I have had the 
good fortune to take thirteen fine speci- 
mens of this insect; they were all in 
very fine condition. — J. T. Carrington, 
Clifton, York. 
Cirrcedia Xerampelina . — I have lately 
reared this beautiful insect from a larva 
found on the 3rd of June. I met with 
two of them concealed in the crevices on 
the trunk of an ash tree, but only one 
has emerged as yet. They fed up on 
the leaves of the ash. — W. R. Jeffrey,
