THE ENTOMOLOGISTS WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
of Rupicapraria, a nice larva of Fim- 
bria, Sc o., and though we no longer keep 
up this laudable custom perhaps some 
of our juniors are following in our 
wake. 
No doubt the publication of the 
‘Annual’ at Christmas time does much 
to dispel the scientific lethargy in which 
entomologists would otherwise be much 
disposed to pass that festive season, 
because we cannot read of the va- 
rious novelties in the past year with- 
out feeling anxious to exert ourselves 
to increase the crop in the coining 
season. 
We hope among the students and 
collectors of Neuroptera some one will 
he forthcoming to furnish us with 
a list of the new British species of 
that order : in the course of two 
years, Dr. Hagen’s contributions ought 
to prove their utility by producing 
fruit.
