LEPIDOPTERA 
By W. F. Kirby, M. E. S., &c. &c. 
A. Works in progress. 
Berce, E. Faune Entomologique Franqaise. Lepidopteres. De- 
scriptions de tons les Papillons qui se trouvent en France, 
indiquant Pepoque de Peclosion de cliaque espece, les loca- 
lites qu^elle frequente, la plante qui nourrit la clienille, le 
moment ou il convient de la cliasser. Dessins et gravures 
par T. Deyrolle. volume. Heteroceres. Paris, 1868 : 
pp. 270, pis. 19-33, and 2 plates of details. 
This volume contains the Sphinges and Bomhyces ; and the 
plates are at least as well executed as in the first volume. 
Figures of all the French Sesiidce are given ; and descriptions 
are given of all the species figured, the omission of which was a 
great drawback to the usefulness of the first volume. 
Butler, A. G. Lepidoptera Exotica, or descriptions and illus- 
trations of Exotic Lepidoptera. Parts 1 & 2. June and 
September 1869. London: 4to, pp. 1-16, pis. 1-6. 
This work is similar in form to Hewitson^s Exotic Butterflies. 
The pages and plates are numbered consecutively. Butler pro- 
poses to figure chiefly such species as he has previously described 
without figures.
