TO CORRESPONDENTS. 
W. A. B., Cirencester. — Ranatra 
linearis is the name of your insect: it 
belongs to the delectable family of 
Bugs. 
M. S. B., Lewes. — Are they not 
hatched already? Give them sloe, nut, 
&c.; they will feed up in the spring (on 
other caterpillars, if you let them). 
R. M. — Ilythia colonel la, the Apho- 
mia colonella of Slainton’s Catalogue, 
the Ilythia sociella of Stephens and 
Westwood, is one of the Crambidte, and 
is common. 
J. C., Colchester. — Your larva is 
that of Lasiocampa Rubi (the Fox moth) ; 
it requires to be kept in an out-door 
cage, exposed to the weather, through 
the winter. 
H. F., Brighton. — The Electric Cen- 
tipede ( Geophilus electncus) is common ; 
see Kirby and Spence, cheap edition, 
p. 509. 
D. W., Swansea. — Your larva is Da- 
sychira pudibunda. 
D. M. — The fact was we had no faith 
in your specimen being Minos , and 
thought it more probably only the variety 
of Lonicerce. 
T. W. A., Poole. — Your Goat cater- 
pillar will probably give you no more 
trouble ; it must be full-fed : if you 
want to kill it, shake it often to see if it 
rattles, and you will be pretty sure to 
succeed ; it will probably not change to 
a pupa till next spring. We cannot fur- 
nish the name of your West Indian 
locust. Exchange your beetles — which 
are almost universally common — for 
beetles, not butterflies. 
J. S. — If we wrote Lucidella , it was a 
mistake ; we meant Alrella. 
J.T. G., Henley. — A Monograph of 
British Bees is already in existence. 
Price Os. (sec 1 Annual’ for 1850, p. 139). 
S. B., Newnham. — Send your insects 
to be named alter January 10th, 1858:
