TUB ENTOMOLOGIST'S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER 
round the flowers of Viburnum Lantana ; 
later in the day I stumbled on the head- 
quarters of ..S’; Fuciformis , a patch of 
ground covered with the flowers of Lych- 
nis Flos-cuculi, and all alive with insect 
life : I managed to box half-a-dozen 
during the few minutes the sun conde- 
scended to show himself. Paphia, Adippe 
and Hyperanthus are now making their 
appearance. V. Polychloros promises to 
be abundant this season, judging by the 
number of larvte taken : I have upwards 
of thirty pupae, which I expect out in a 
few days. Since the 23rd two beautiful 
specimens of A. Iris have appeared in 
my breeding-cage ; four others are biding 
their time. — W. Sturgess, Kettering ;

Duplicate Lepidoptera. — I have re- 
cently been taking Polyomrnatus jEgon 
and Anthrocera Trifolii in some num- 
bers, and shall be happy to supply those 
in want of them as long as my stock 
lasts. Applicants will please enclose re- 
turn postage, or if they have any of the 
following species to spare I will pay 
postage one way : — 
P. Cratsegi 
T. Quercus 
T. Rubi 
P. Alsus 
Adonis 
can catch P. 
P. Artaxerxes 
P. Comma 
S. Statices 
A. Minos 
S. Ocellatus 
Sylvanus and Linea 
almost ad libitum , if any one wants 
them. — H. W. Killingback, 10 , Oldham 
Place , Coppice Roiv , IV. C. ; June 29. 
Callimorpha Jacobcecc. — I have a great 
quantity of Callimorpha Jacobccce ; if 
any of your readers would like a few, I 
shall be most happy to supply them, if 
they will send boxes with return post- 
age. — Waters Taylor, 44, Bridges 
> Street , Southwark ; June 29. 
Vanessa Io. — If any north country or 
Scotch collector is wanting the larva of 
Vanessa Io I shall be happy to send him 
some, on receipt of a box and return 
postage ; he will save postage by en- 
closing duplicates of any common local 
species. I shall be glad to exchange 
larvae of Cucullia Verbasci for either 
larva or imago of any Smerinthus, A. 
Villica, N. Plantaginis or H. Dominula.

LISTLESSNESS OF ADVANCED ENTO- 
MOLOGISTS. 
TO THE EDITOR OF THE ‘INTELLI- 
GENCER.’ 
Sir, — On reading over, yesterday, the 
last four or five numbers of the ‘ Intelli- 
gencer, it struck me that wonderfully few 
of the entomological grandees had taken 
any notice of your proposed Examina- 
tions (or indeed of the ‘Intelligencer’ 
itself), and that few, comparatively 
speaking, of the entomological dis- 
coveries are recorded there. 
I am, Sir, 
Yours respectfully, 
Probatus. 
THE GRADUS. 
TO THE EDITOR OF THE ‘INTELLI- 
GENCER.’ 
Sir, — I should be much obliged if you 
or any of your correspondents could tell 
ine the derivations of the names Anthro- 
cera, CEnistis, Neustria, and could sug- 
gest reasons for the names Livomica, 
Complana, Odonestis, Cilix. 
I atn, 
Yours faithfully, 
Rev. H. H. Minchin.
