The SPOTTED ELM-MOTH. Its _Caterpillar_ is not very common, altho’ it feeds on the Leaves of the _Elm_, _Lime_ and _Oak_. It goes into the Earth, and turns to a _Chrysalis_ in _August_: The _Moth_ appears in _May_, and is then to be found sometimes, sticking on the Barks of the above Trees; but it is not common. See _Albin_, P. 40, 41. 91, 92. The Witch Elm. _Ulmus folio latissimo scabro._ Ger. Em. 1481. L. 1. CH. 3. II. CL. 1. S. _b._ 2. The SWALLOW-TAIL MOTH. The _Caterpillar_ feeds on _Bramble_, _Oak_ Leaves, and other Growths; lives all the Winter: When it changes to a _Chrysalis_, which it does in _March_, the _Chrysalis_ is fastened by the Tail, and lies, with its Head upwards, within a few fine Threads of its own spinning. The _Moth_ is bred in _May_ and _June_, and may be taken flying in an Evening by the Sides of Woods, and in green Lanes. See _Rosel_, Cl. 3. Tab. 6. _Albin_, P. 94. The Bramble. _Rubus, fructu nigro._ C. B. L. 1. CH. 3. III. CL. 1. S. _b._ 3. The OCTOBER-MOTH. Its _Caterpillar_ is to be found, full fed, at the End of _May_, by beating the Boughs of the _Oak_, _Elm_, _Black-Thorn_, _&c._ which are the Food it feeds upon. It changes to the _Chrysalis_ State, within the Earth, about that Time, and the _Moth_ is bred in _October_, when it may be found sticking on the Bark of Trees, in Parks and other Places.

The _Caterpillar_ is found on the _White-Thorn_, towards the Middle of _September_, when it is full fed, and changes to a _Chrysalis_, within a Spinning, and the _Moth_ is produced in the _April_ and _May_ following. It flies slowly, and is easily taken in an Evening. This _Moth_ breeds twice in a Year; the first Time in _April_ and _May_, the second in _July_ and _August_. _Figure_ 1. The White Thorn. 2.

The SCALLOP WINGED MOTH laid her Eggs on the 5th of _August_, and eight Days after the _Caterpillars_ appeared. I fed them with _White-Thorn_ and _Privet_, till the Beginning of _October_, at which Time several of them changed to the _Chrysalis_ betwixt the Leaves spun together. They remained in that State during the Winter, and the _Moths_ were bred in _May_ following. This _Moth_ is to be taken, in the Evening, by the Sides of Woods, Hedges, _&c._ The White Thorn, with its Fruit. _Mespilus, Apii folio; sylvestris, sive oxyacantha._ C. B. Pin. 458.
