a small triangular patch on the centre of the costa and a small apical 
patch.— Ibid. 
Bombycia duplaris. —Mr. A. Harrison, a series of melanic speci¬ 
mens from Simonswood, Lancs., a locality where the exhibitor believed 
only dark forms were found.

from light mottled to almost black forms.— Ibid. 
Hybrid lepidoptera.— Mr. C. P. Pickett, a long series of S. populi 
X ocellatus hybrids, including three specimens with almost black hind- 
wings, on which the ocelli were very distinctly marked, and another 
specimen closely following S. populi in general appearance. Also 
hybrid Melalopha curt ala xreclusa and Eutrapelabilunaria (illunaria) x 
tetralunaria (illustraria), the characteristics of both parents being easily 
traced in each hybrid, and two specimens of hybrid Notodonta drome- 
darius x ziczac resembling the former species in size and colour, but

Notolophus gonostigma, second brood. —Mr. J. Riches, a series

and dark olive.

wings, captured at Wicken in July, 1905. 
Suggestion re donations to Society’s cabinet.— Mr. Cox drew 
attention to the paucity of members’ donations to the Society’s collec¬ 
tion, and suggested that members might give a few of their duplicates 
of the rarer species, even though they were not among the Society’s 
desiderata; these, Mr. Cox proposed, could be kept in a store-box and 
displayed on “ exchange night,” when it might be possible to secure 
in exchange specimens required for the Society’s collection. Mr. Cox’s 
suggestion met with general approval.
