THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
UnJ 
more Edusa and one Hi/ale, all in 
Chevening Park. The former I found 
for the most part flying over some low 
underwood in an oak plantation. A 
very high wind, in addition to the 
rapidity of their flight, prevented me 
from capturing more of them. — Hon. E. 
Stanhope, Chevening, Sevenoaks ; Aug. 9. 
Acheronlia Alropos at Darlington . — I 
obtained a fine larva of this Sphinx 
on the 6lh inst., which was found near 
this town by a woman while digging up 
potatoes. It descended into the earth 
on the Sth inst. to undergo its transfor- 
mation. — Christopher Eales, 8, King 
Street, Darlington ; August 9. 
Camptograrnma Gemmaria. — On the 
till' July I captured a specimen of this 
insect at light, in fine condition. — C. G. 
Barrett, 37, Park Street, Mile End; 
August 2. 
[We presume this was a female speci- 
men ; the specimens of Gemmaria always 
are females, and the specimens of Flu- 
viala always are males — a curious coinci- 
dence.] 
Colias Edusa at Brighton. — On the 
2nd inst. I succeeded in taking sixteen 
Edusa in a clover field near the Race 
Course, also two dozen Cardui, three 
A. Lucluosa, and several other Noctuae 
that I have not yet named. — A. Taylor, 
83, Nelson Square, Snow's Fields, Ber- 
mondsey ; August 7. 
Edusa and Corydon. — August 1st, I 
and my brother started for Croydon, and 
having reached there, went on to Rid- 
dlesdown, and succeeded in capturing 
three beautiful specimens of Colias 
Edusa, all $, upwards of a hundred 
specimens of P. Corydon, and several 
specimens of H. Semele. August 2nd, 
we went again to the same place and 
captured three more C. Edusa, &c. On 
the 8th inst. to Wormwood Scrubs, and 
we captured two more C. Edusa, and 
many commoner insects. — W. and G. 
Lamb, 2, Portsdown Mews, Kilburn 
Gate, Middlesex ; August 8. 
Colias Edusa var. Ilelice . — Colias 
Edusa is rather common on the Railway 
Bank here ; and to day I took a very fine 
specimen of var. Ilelice. All the speci- 
mens of the common variety are males. 
— Robert McLachlan, Forest Hill; 
August 5. 
Colias Hyale. — I should be glad to 
exchange this insect for any of the fol- 
lowing, numbered in the ‘Manual ’Ap- 
pendix 28, 48, 49, 52. — Anthony 
Mason, Grange, Newton - in - Cartmel ; 
August 3.

2nd of this month I spent at Darenth 
Wood, and forward you a list of my

Colias Edusa (3), 
Cynthia Cardui (2), 
Triphsena Fimbria (5), 
Acontia Luetuosa (4), 
Thyatira Batis (3), 
„ Derasa (2), 
Ceropacha Or (i). 
I have still a quantity of A. Galathea 
for any one who requires them. — Joseph 
P. Thomas, Jun., 2, Catherine Street, 
Strand; August A. 
Captures near Cheltenham. — On Tues- 
day the 3rd inst., I had the good fortune 
to capture four pairs of Colias Edusa, 
apparently just escaped from the pupa 
state. I saw about a dozen more, among 
which was one C. Hyale and a female of 
C. Edusa. The same day I captured 
three pairs of Cynthia Cardui, which I 
also saw in abundance. About a month 
back I took three pairs of Polyommalus 
Avion at the same place. These were all 
taken at Short Wood, about four miles 
distant from this place, — W. H. Comyn, 
Wolseley Villa, Cheltenham ; August 4. 
Captures in Dorsetshire. — My friend 
Mr. George Harding, of Bristol, and I, 
had a few days’ collecting round Dor- 
chester and Weymouth, and captured —
