REPORTS OF MEETINGS. 
Dec. 18tli, 1906.— Entephria c^siata and E. ruficinctata. —Mr. 
E. A. Cockayne short series from Rannoch district, including dark and 
banded forms of both species. 
Pierts BRASSICA5— Mr. A. Harrison, a series reared from ova laid 
by typical $ , taken at Wavertree near Liverpool. In several of the 
2 s, and one or two $ s, the spots on the forewings, on both the 
under and upper sides, were connected by black scales, thus forming in 
the more extreme instances a broad band. 
Bindahar/’e Sugriva. mimicry. —Dr. Cl. G. C. Hodgson, in exhibiting 
specimens from Australia, stated that he had observed that this species 
rested either head downwards or horizontally, so that the ocelli on the 
underside of the hindwings resembled a head, and the “tails ” simu¬ 
lated antennae ; the fact that all the specimens exhibited were more or 
less damaged at the anal angle of the hindwings, suggested that birds 
were deceived by the resemblance described. 
Jodia croceago. —Mr. A. J. Willsdon exhibited two series : the 
one bred in Essex from Kent ova was of normal orange colour, 
while the other bred in Yorkshire from New Forest ova was of a pale 
salmon pink colour. _ .

undersized lepidoptera, including Agrotis puta, A. saucia, Amathes

exceptionally hot and dry season.

stone walls that abound in the district; the specimens were of a
