Allow me to suggest that when 
applying for any of the duplicates 
mentioned in ‘The Substitute,’ a 
great deal of writing may be saved 
by enclosing a marked list of de- 
siderata in the same envelope with 
the application for any insect 
mentioned, as the writer may 
have other duplicates that would 
be also acceptable; and it would 
be well if the list sent had a mark 
atfixed .showing what duplicates 
he had to forward if any of them 
should be wanted. In all eases 
I think it better to write first, 
never sending a box on the first 
application, for I have returned 
some on several occttsions contain- 
ing only a pair of Rivaria, which 
cost sixpence postage, whereas if 
I had known at the time all their 
wants 1 could have sent them 
many other species ; therefore 1 
think in all cases it is the best 
way to send a marked li<t at the 
time of application. Also another
