I^The student will form some idea of the immense numbers of insects belong¬ 
ing to the British Fauna, when he is told, that in the preceding paper only one 
order is taken into consideration; and that, numerous as are the species men¬ 
tioned by Mr. Dale, perhaps he has not included one-fourth of the British 
insects appertaining to the group. We hope to present the remainder of our able 
correspondent’s article on a future occasion.—E d.]
