70 THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
in May ; these laid, and the larvo3 spun 
lip the middle of July, and came to the 
perfect insects the end of the same 
month. 
„ Lubricepeda. Common. 
Bred. 
„ Menthastri. Common. 
Bred. 
Liparis Monacha. A pupa found 
hanging to a rail produced a fine female 
specimen August 29. 
Oigyia Pudibunda. Bred; scarce. 
Clisiocampa Neuslria. Abundant. 
Eriogaster Lancstris. Bred. Found 
a few larvae. The larvae appear to have 
been abundant in the neighbourhood of 
Braunton Burrows this year, but unfor- 
tunately I was too late for them. 
Lasiocampa llubi. Larvae very abun- 
dant last autumn. I failed in rearing it, 
but shall try again, with, I trust, better 
success. 
„ Quercus. Abundant. Lar- 
V£B very liable to be ichneumoned. A 
female I bred attracted the males in 
line style ; they flew into my room six 
and seven at a time. 
Odonestis Potatoria. Abundant. Tried 
to attract the males with bred females, 
but they were not to be enticed. 
Hepialus Humuli. Common. Took 
the males at rest on the stems of grass in 
the day-time ; they are very conspicuous. 
The eggs, when first laid, are bright yel- 
low, but speedily turn black. 
„ Lupulinus. Common. 
Cilix Spinula. Common. 
Platypteryx Falcula. Rare. 
Cerura Furcula. Bred June 8. 
„ Bifida. Tookonelarva Aug. 13. 
„ Vinula. Bred ; scarce. The 
larva of this species, besides their two 
tails, have two other minute and flexible 
projections on each side of the anus, and 
wheu the excrement is produced, these 
two points or projections are pushed into 
it, bent double, and then with a suddeu 
jerk propel the excrement to some dis- 
tance. 
Ptilodontis Palpina. Rare. Took one 
egg on the under side of a poj)lar-leaf. 
Notodonta Camelina. Scarce. 
„ Diclma. Scarce. 
„ Ziczac. Bred. Took a few 
larvte. 
Pygmra Bucephala. Abundant.

My time for Entomology is limited, and

hear from me personally in answer to 
their kind offers of assistance, to under-
