The thanks of the members were voted to Mr. C. Spence Bate for his

Mr. Edwin Burchell read the following paper —- 
ON ADDITIONS TO THE IRISH LEPIDOPTERA. 
Although I feel that the materials at my command for drawing up 
a supplement to the Bev. Mr. Greene’s valuable list of Irish Lepidoptera 
are very meagre, yet, as three years have elapsed without any one better 
qualified than myself undertaking the task, I venture to record a few 
additional species which have come under my observation. To Mr. 
Alexander G. More, of Bembridge, I have to express my obligation for 
a very complete record of his captures during a residence of several 
months at Ardrahan, which has enabled me to add no less than eleven 
species to our list:— 
Polyommatus cegon , near Galway. June. 
Erebia Cassiope, near Westport. July. 
Trochilium tipuliforme , Gardens, Dublin. 
Lithosia mini at a, Galway. A. G. More. 
Setina irrorella , Galway; abundant. June. 
Liparis aurijiua ; generally distributed. 
Endromis versicolor , Powerscourt. 
Clostera curtula, Tullamore and Clonmel.
