CAPTURES. 
LePIDOI’TERA. 
Sphinx Convolvuli. — On the 15th of 
this month some children brought me a 
fine specimen, much damaged, of the 
above. — Samuel E. Neave, Fording- 
bridye, Hants. 
Sphinx Convolvuli. — I have taken two 
females of S, Convolvuli ; one on the 
24lh of August, at rest on a door ; and 
another on the 13th of September, in a 
conservatory, into which the Petunias 
had attracted it. — E. C. Kingston, 
Brantinyhain, Brough ; Sept. 17. 
Acronycta Alni. — On the 29th of 
August I found a full-fed larva of this 
species, feeding on the Medlar.- — Ibid. 
Oporabia Filigrammaria. — The other 
day I went to the moors of East Cum- 
berland to see what they would produce, 
and I and a friend (who was no ento- 
mologist) each took a specimen of Opo- 
rabia Filigrammaria. I must confess 
that when I got to my hunting-ground 
I was much disappointed to find the 
heath so short and stunted. — Thomas 
H ODGKiNSON, 3, Princess Street, London 
Road, Carlisle ; Sept. 11. 
OBSERVATIONS. 
Butalis Knochella bred. — Herr Schmid 
writes me word that the Butalis larva on 
Cerastium arvense (see Intel. No. 197, 
p. 118) has produced B. Knochella . — 
H. T. Stainton; Sept. 15. 
The new British Cosmopteryx. — Last 
summer Mr.Furren spent some time in the 
New Forest, and published a list of his 
captures of Tineina there, in the ‘ Intelli- 
gencer’ of August 13, 1859 (No. 150, 
p. 157). Near the eud of that notice our 
readers will observe the following para- 
graph 
“Cosmopteryx Drurella. Two among 
bramble; no hops within a great dis- 
tance.” 
Mr. Farren having lately entertained sus- 
picions as to the genuineness of these 
specimens as tiie true hop-feeding Exi- 
mia, has sent them to me for examina- 
tion, and 1 have no hesitation in pro- 
nouncing them identical with iMr. Brown’s 
new species, and quite distinct from 
Eximia. — Imo; Sept.VT. 
Yarrow Gall-Gnat (Cecidomyia Achil- 
leifi?). — 1 drew attention last month to 
the galled heads of the sneezewort 
{Achillea Ptarmica), the work of a tiny 
dipteron, which pierces the flower-heads
