I have not yet had the good Fortune to meet with this _Caterpillar_, but have seen several of the _Moths_ that have been bred and taken in _England_. The Dung of this _Caterpillar_ is of a very extraordinary Size and Figure; as well as some others that are expressed in the Plates. See _Rosel_, Cl. 1. Tab. 7. _Merian_, Chap. 25. _Reaumur_, Pl. 24. Pag. 322. Vol. 2. The Small Bindweed. _Convolvulus minor vulgaris_. Park. 171. L. 1. CH. 1. III. CL. 1. S. _B._ 3. The PRIVET-HAWK MOTH. The _Caterpillars_ feed on _Privet_, _Lilac_, _Holly_, _&c._ and are to be found in Nurseries and Gardens. Look on the Ground under such Trees; and if you discover any of their Dung, that will direct you to the _Caterpillars_ on the Trees above. They go into the Ground, and change to the _Chrysalis_ State in _August_ and the _Moth_ appears in _June_ following. ’Tis not very common to take the _Moth_ in the Fly-state. See _Raii_ Hist. Insect.

This _Caterpillar_ is to be got by beating the Boughs of the _Lime_ and _Elm_ Trees, in the Month of _August_; at which Time it goes into the Earth, and there changes to a _Chrysalis_, and the _Moth_ is bred in _May_. By looking carefully about the Bodies of _Lime_ and _Elm_ Trees, in _May_, these and other _Moths_ may be found: For, if the Flies are bred in the Morning, or any Part of the Day, they never offer to fly till Night. You may likewise get these _Moths_, and many other Sorts, in the _Chrysalis_ State, by digging with a Trowel about the Roots of the Trees the _Caterpillars_ feed on; and the best Time to dig for the Hawk Kind is the Month of _April_. This Fly is seldom taken on the Wing. See _Merian_, Vol. 2. Ch. 24. _Albin_, Pl. 10. _Rosel_, Cl. 1. Tab. 11. The small leaved Lime-tree in Flower. _Tilia fœmina, Folio minore._ C. B. Pin. L. 1.

At the End of _August_, I have also found them in Gardens feeding on the Leaves of Apple-trees. They put on the _Chrysalis_ Form within the Earth in _September_, and the _Moths_ are produced in _May_. The _Chrysalis_ and _Moth_ may be got at the same Time as directed for the Lime-Hawk.
