THE ENTOxMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCLB. 
times asked myself “ Does the egg make 
a noise ? ” 
Drymonia Chaonia was bred in 1857 
from larvae at Beinbridge. 
Petasia Cassinea. Larvae found in 1857 
changed to pupae, but did not appear in 
the perfect state. The moth was taken 
at rest on the trunk of a poplar tree 
December 2nd. 
Lithosia stramineola. This was taken, 
flying in lanes, in July, 1857. 
Eriogaster Laneslris. I have living 
pupae, which entered that state in 1854 ; 
some emerged in 1856, some in 1857, 
none in 1858. 
Poecilocampa Populi. A fine male 
came to light in December,’ 1858. 
Drepana bainula came to light in June 
and August. 
Acronycta Leporina. This is not un- 
common at Bembridge in the vicinity of 
alders: it is found on the trunks of trees 
in the day-time: it occurred in July in 
1856, ’57 and ’58. 
Leucania vitellinu. A specimen was 
taken, at sugar, at Beml)iidge, on the 
24th September, 1858. 
L. Littoralis. This came to light, in 
1857. 
Laphygma exigua. At light, on 15th 
July, 1857 — September 8th, 1858. Tliis 
“ flops” down like Cosniia pi/ralina, and 
rnns about like A. exclumationis. 
Agrolis saucia. One specimen only 
in 1857, in abundance in 1858. This is 
clearly a garden insect, the larvae and 
pupae being found in gardens. 
A. lunigera. Specimens were taken in 
1857 and 1858. 
A. ciiierea. Taken at light in 1857 
and 1858; eggs were obtained, which 
hatched, and the larva; fed up, but being 
kept too dry, and not under ground, they 
died in August.

lower than those taken in June.
