A. Selene, T. Quercus, 
T. Betulae, S. Ocellatus. 
— W. G. Rawlinson, The Chestnuts, 
Taunton. 
Toxocampa Paslinum and Epione Ves- 
per luria. — I have been taking T. Pas- 
tinum very freely lately, and should be 
glad to exchange with any gentleman in 
want of it on receipt of their duplicate 
lists. I have also about forty good spe- 
cimens of E. Vespertaria, which I should 
be glad to exchange for those numbered 
in the ‘Manual’ — 4,5, 20, 23, 42, 43,

493, See. Can any of your readers in- 
form me whether E. Vespertaria is a day 
or night flyiug insect, as I took most 
between six and eight in the morning? 
— Wm. Pkest, 7, Custlegate, York. 
A Visit to Darenth Wood. — I visited 
Darenth Wood on the 11th of July for 
his Imperial Majesty, but be was so high 
and mighty, that I only succeeded in 
taking 1 $ in fine condition. Theela 
Quercus was in abundance and in fine 
condition, of which I captured a dozen; 
A. Paphia, A. Prunaria, arid L. Miaria 
finished the day. Thursday I made 
another attempt, and saw four, but only 
captured 2 $ , A. Iris, with a few Poly- 
chloros and G. Rhamni, apparently 
fresh from the chrysalis. 
July 18th. — Went to Riddlesdown for 
Corydon, which I took in abundance. 
Having a few spare specimens of — 
Argynnis Paphia, 
Arge Gaitithea, 
Vanessa Polychloi;os, . 
Theela Quercus, and 
Polyommatus Corydon. 
1 shall be glad to exchange for good 
specimens of either — 
Aporia Crataegi, 
Leucophasia Sinapis, 
Melitaea Athalia, 
Steropes Pauiscus, 
Patnpliila Comma, or Acltcon. 
— Geo. Fishek, 21, New Church Street, 
Edgeware Road ; July 21. 
P. Artaxerxes and A. Minos. — This 
latter animal is completely gone. I have 
not seen any for the past week, and my 
stock was exhausted immediately on it 
being made known that I had them. 
Bad weather has prevented me from sup- 
plying a host of applicants. As the days 
are again fine, I have caught a number 
of duplicates and sent them off. I have 
still a few, and expect to have more spe- 
cimens that I can send ; but so many 
have applied that I could not return 
their boxes post free. If any one will 
send a box and stamps for return, I shall 
use my utmost endeavour to put into it 
good specimens of P. Artaxerxes : if any 
one wishes, I have plenty of A. Trifolii, — 
they were caught last week. My deside- 
rata are those marked 2, 3, 4,5,9, 10, 
11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 21,23, 24, 28, 37, 
39, 44, 55, 58, 60, in the ‘ Manual.’ 
The above are the principal that I want. 
— R. Thomson, Bourtreebush, rid Stone- 
haven, N.B.; July 26. 
Duplicate Lepuloptera run out. — In 
consequence of so many applications, my 
stock of duplicates are all run out. Those 
who do not receive a direct answer must 
not think me wanting in courtesy, as I 
have no time to spare. — H. Bukns, Bir- 
mingham ; July 26. 
Tinagma resplendellum. — I bred this 
insect yesterday from larvae collected at 
Probus ! Can there be a second brood ? 
— Thomas Boyd, 17, Clapton Square, 
N.E. ; July 23. 
Polyommatus Corydon . — The downs 
here are swarming with P. Corydon ; 
II. Semele is also abundant, and I have 
about forty A. Galathea, which I wantonly 
captured in the ardour of my first year’s 
collecting. Any one in want of these 
species shall be supplied if they will send 
boxes and return postage. — J. S. Wes- 
es: y, The Close, Winchester ; July 21. 
To Larva Hunters. — Captain Cox 
wishes that no more lame may be sent 
him at present ; when he feels at liberty
