The POPLAR HAWK MOTH. The _Caterpillar_ of this _Moth_ feeds on the Leaves of the _Poplar_ Tree, as also on the _Willow_, and is to be found at the same Times and Places as the _Willow-Hawk Caterpillar_. It becomes a _Chrysalis_ in the Ground in _September_, and the _Moth_ appears in _May_. It is to be found in the _Chrysalis_ and Fly-state as the before mentioned. All the Hawk-tribe fly very swiftly, and I am inclined to believe feed in wet marshy Places, by reason I have never taken them on the Wing in Places where I have always met with Plenty of other Moths.

The _Caterpillars_ are to be found in the Ditches in _Rotherhith_ Marshes, and also by the _New River_ Side, near _Hornsey_. They feed on the _White Ladies Bedstraw_, and are full grown at the End of _July_; at which Time they usually go into the _Chrysalis_ State, by making a light Spining amongst their Food, where they remain till the End of the following _May_: At which Time the _Moth_ is bred; but very seldom taken in the Fly-state. Mr. _Albin_ has mentioned something very remarkable of this _Caterpillar_, _viz._ its Dexterity in Swiming: For, feeding commonly in or near the Water, if at any time it happens to fall in, it turns itself on its Back, and swims, with its Head and Tail turned together, till it gets hold on some Part of the Plant, by which it helps itself up again. It lies in the Egg-state about nine Days. See _Raii_ Hist. Insect. P. 145. N. 2. _Albin_, Pl. 9. The White Ladies Bedstraw. _Gallium Album._ Ger. 967. SECT. _C_.

Its _Caterpillar_ feeds on _Black Thorn_, _White Thorn_, _Crab-tree_, _&c._ becomes a _Chrysalis_ in the Earth in _May_, and the _Moth_ appears in _September_. _Charles Lockyer_, Esq; has bred great Numbers of this _Moth_ at his House at _Ealing_; but I have heard of no body else who has met with them in any Plenty.

The OZIER, or PEBBLE MOTH. Mr. _Dandridge_ found the _Caterpillar_ feeding on the _Dutch Willow_, in the Marshes near _Rotherhith_, about the Middle of _July_; it changed to a _Chrysalis_ within the Leaves spun together; and at the Beginning of _August_ came forth the _Moth_. This fly is very scarce.
