7 anessa Antiopa near Birmingham. — I saw Antiopa yesterday, stopped my 
carriage and tried to catch it in my hat, but failed to do so, I am sorry to say. It 
was close by Cannon Hill Park near here. — R. C. R. Joed AN, 105, Ilarborne Road, 
Edgbaston, Birmingham : September ls£, 1880. 
T anessa Antiopa near Virginia Water. — It may interest your readers to learn 
that a very good specimen of V. Antiopa was caught by a friend of mine, Mr. 
Montague, near Virginia Water, as early as August 15th, and after a series of ad- 
ventures is now in my possession in excellent preservation. — Harold J. Adams, 
St. John’s College, Cambridge : September 4 th , 1880. 
J anessa Antiopa at Box Hill. — A young gentleman lately saw two examples of 
this butterfly at Box Hill, Surrey, but although he knew the species, yet being one 
of those persons who keep only one specimen of a species, he caught but one and 
left the other, for which latter proceeding he has been 6adly upbraided by his 
acquaintances. — A. H. Swinton, Binfield House, Gluildford: September 10th, 1880. 
T anessa Antiopa at Herne Bay. — I took a fine specimen of the Camberwell 
Beauty on the 26th of August last, at sugar, in Herne Bay. — Samuel M’Caul. 
Vanessa Antiopa at JEastbourne. — A specimen was recently taken on a road in 
Eastbourne, and is now in my possession, though in rather a dilapidated condition. 
— A. Walker, The School House, Norwich : September, 1880.

from my house on August 24th. — A. E. Stuart, Shenley House, Headcorn : August 
29th, 1880. 
Vanessa Antiopa in Devon. — A specimen of the Camberwell Beauty was captured 
in my garden yesterday. It was first seen resting on a fallen Quarrendon apple, to 
which, on being disturbed, it returned after a short flight, and was then caught. — 
John Ellis, The Elms, Chudleigh : August 31s£, 1880. 
Vanessa Antiopa in Kent. — Vanessa Antiopa has been twice taken in this 
neighbourhood in the first week of September, viz., once at Knowlton and once at 
Reclville. — Oxenden Hammond, St. Albans Court, near Wingham : Sept. 7 th, 1880. 
Vanessa Antiopa at Tonbridge. — I saw a very perfect specimen of the Camber- 
well Beauty whilst out driving on August 27th last. Not having a net with me, I 
was unable to catch it. — Edith C. Thompson, Tonbridge. 
Vanessa Antiopa in Berkshire. — I captured, a few days ago, a good specimen of 
the Camberwell Beauty. At the time I caught it, it wns feeding on some rotten fruit. 
I have never before seen one in this locality. A day or two after, I heard of the capture 
of another specimen at a spot about seven miles from where I caught mine. Hoes 
this mean that this year is an unusually good one for the insect ? My specimen is 
large and perfect, and with reference to the disputed point about the difference 
between British and foreign specimens, the rim around the wings is, in my specimen, 
a good creamy-white. — C. L. Lindsay, Ardington, Wantage : September 8 th, 1880.
