JLepidoptera there are two or three broods in a 
Summer, confequently the feparate times of the 
feveral broods muft be noted, as well of their 
transformation into the Chryfalis, as their appear¬ 
ance in the winged hate. Here I was under the 
neceflity of fetting down two or three different 
months in one column. For the better under¬ 
handing of which, we will give the Speckled 
wood, 49, as an example : In the third column 
is placed Mar . May, July, and in the fourth 
April, June , Aug. here is meant, that the Ca¬ 
terpillars which change into Chryfalis in March 
appear in the fly in April; the Caterpillars from 
this brood change in May and appear in June; 
and again the Caterpillars proceeding from fe- 
cond brood, change into Chryfalis in July, and 
pome forth in the flying hate in Auguh. 
X have alfo given an alphabetical Lih of Lin- 
nean Names to as many of the English fpecies as 
I could find in that author ; or as many as I was 
certain agreed with thofe of the Englifh infers, 
for the 1 e are a great number of which I was 
doubtful, and chafe not to admit them for fear 
pf making mihakes. This Lih refers to the 
Englifh one, where the hiftory of the infedt in-, 
fibred after may be found,
