The spring here was an unusually cold and late one, and it was not until April 17th that I saw a moth of any description, and that “first swallow” was only a Depressaria Canadensis, Busck. I did not see a single specimen of Leucobrephos Middendorfi, Men., though an April seldom goes by without my doing so, and generally at some awkward moment when no net is handy. Year before last I was repotting some plants on the sunny side of my house, when a Leucobrephos flew against me, dropped at my feet, and was off again before I could pot it.
