I have captured in my garden a perfect C rhamni, beautifully striped with 
alternate colours of the male and female. — Abraham Edmunds, Cemetery House, 
Astwood Eoad, Worcester, October 24*71, 1867. 
HeliotMs pelUgera at Haslemere. — On August 22nd last, I was looking round a 
clover field at the top of a hill for Colias Edusa, which is never common here, when 
a Nociua, evidently not Plusia gamma, rose at my feet and settled again a few 
yards off, allowing me to secure it. To my great surprise it proved to be Heliothis 
peltigera, in decent condition, a most unexpected piece of good fortune in that 
exposed situation, and so late in the season. I worked long and often for more, 
but without success. — Chas. G. Babeett, Haslemere, 13th November, 1867. 
Note on honey-suckle feeders. — It may be worthy of notice that, when searching 
honey-suckle last May for larvse of Limenitis Sybilla, I found the larvffl of Pericallia 
syringaria feeding on that plant, and also several of the curious (apparently) long- 
tailed pupas spun up on the dry twigs. 
The larvEe of Ha/rpella neviorella also occurred, feeding exposed on the shoots.

Phorodesma hajularia assembling. — One evening at the end of June, while 
taking Phorodesma bajula/ria in one of the broad rides of Woolmer Forest, T observed 
that several males fluttered one after the other over the same spot. Nothing was 
visible there, but, on disturbing the matted honey-suckle which covered the ground 
with my foot, a fine female — the only one I have taken — fluttered out, and was 
secured. She appeared to have as great a power of " assembling " as some of the 
Bombyces. — Id. 
Tineina at Haslemere in 1867. — Tinea ferruginella — Several specimens flying 
in the afternoon among Epilobiuin angustifolium. An odd fancy for a Tinea. 
Micropteryx Salopiella — Common among birch, 8parmannella — Generally found 
among stunted birch bushes on the hills. 
Nemophora Metaxella — Rather common among alders in damp woods. 
Yponomeuta vigintipunctata. — Larva common on 8edum telephium in Sep- 
ember and October. In some cases the web was made on the ground, and the 
larvaj retreated among the moss and stones when disturbed. 
Eidophasia Messingiella — Dr. Knaggs took a specimen when visiting here. 
Bepressaria assimilata — Flying commonly about broom bushes in a v/ood path, 
one evening in June. Olerella — in thatch, spring and autumn. 
Gelechia scripitella — Blown off an apple-tree trunk in June. 
Macrochila fasciella — May. Beaten from undergrowth near sloe bushes.
