species, but of genera, which exists 
among these water-flies, and he would 
be surprised, if he just took the trouble 
to secure and pin them, what a varied 
collection he could make. 
“ All very well,” replies our piscatorial 
friend with a knowing wink, “ but I don’t 
want a collection of insects.” 
“ Bless me ! my friend,” we exclaim, 
“ but you have a collection of artificial 
flies, and would it not be as well to make 
a collection of real ones, marking under 
each when and where found, and whether 
a killing bait or not, and whether spe- 
cially preferred by any particular fish.” 
“ Coquet, August, Trout" would be a 
very tempting looking label for a fly ; and 
such notices might frequently be of use 
to guide a brother angler, who was 
learned in the mysteries of flies, to use 
some cognate species in some other 
stream, and probably with an equally 
beneficial result.

Third Part of Leon Fairmaire’s ‘ Faune 
Entomologique Franqaise,’ which we
