In this paper the author indicates his own adherence to the 
Darwinian theory of the origin of species, and urges entomolo- 
gists to undertake researches hearing upon it, which he justly 
says are of far more importance than the prevailing ^^cultus^^ of 
the new species and new genus. He illustrates his remarks 
by an abstract of the experiments of Dorfmeister on the develop- 
ment of two species (?) of Vanessa {vide infra ) .
