HE DECEMBER MOTH. Mr. Danbieee took fome of its Caterpillars, 
at the Beginning of Fune, on the Ha/fle ; but, obferving they eat but little, gave 
them frefh Boughs that were wet with Rain, on which they fed greedily. The next Day he

Oo eating again very heartily. In this Manner he fed them every Day, and fometimes twice 
a Day, till the Middle of the fame Month, when they went into the Earth and changed into 
Chryfalis. The Moths came out at the End of December. 1 took this Year (1748) two of 
thefe Caterpillars on the Leaves of an Oak, wherewith I fed them till the Middle of Fuue, when 
they fpun a dirty coloured Cafe which contained the Chryfalis ; and the Moths were ¢ bred on the 
24th Oéfober.
