Mr. _Rosel_ assures us, that the _Caterpillars_ feed on the Leaves of the _Pear_ Tree, _&c._ and is to be found at the End of _May_ and the Beginning of _June_. They change to the _Chrysalis_ amongst the _Pear_ Leaves: They continue fourteen Days in that State, and the _Moth_ appears about the End of _June_. This _Moth_ is to be taken in an Evening by the Sides of Woods, in green Lanes, Gardens, _&c._ See _Rosel_, Cl. 2. Tab. 10. The _Spanish_ or _Catalonian_ Jasmine. _Jasminum humilius magno flore._ C.

I got several of them by beating the Boughs of the _White Thorn_, about the Middle of _September_; at which Time many of this Sort spin themselves amongst the Leaves and change to _Chrysalis_, and the _Moths_ are bred in the Middle of _May_ following. This is a very scarce Fly. The Carolina Hawthorn. _Mespilus Caroliniana, Apii foliis volgari similis major fructu luteo._ Millar. L. 1. CH. 3. VIII. CL. 1. S. _b._ 8. The ORANGE MOTH. The four different coloured Flies represented in the Plate, were all produced from _Caterpillars_ that were hatched from the Eggs of such a Female as is represented at _Fig._ 1. The Eggs were of a pale green Colour, and were hatch’d on the 13th _July_ 1747; and the young _Caterpillars_ were fed with the Leaves of _Black-Thorn_, till about the 20th, when they changed their first Skin; on the second of _August_ they changed their Skin again, and, about the Middle of the same Month, they left off eating: But, _October_ the 25th, being put on _Bramble_ Leaves, they began to eat again, and changed their Skin a third Time, _November_ the 28th; after which they remained pretty quiet the whole Winter without eating. At the End of _March_ they began to eat the fresh Buds of the _Black_ and _White-Thorn_, and changed their Skin for the fourth Time. About the End of _April_, one that was separated from the Rest changed its Skin a fifth Time _May_ the 10th: spun up _May_ the 29th: and the _Moth_ was produced _June_ the 17th. Several others spun up between _May_ the 22d and _June_ the 5th, and the _Moths_ were produced between _June_ the 12th and 25th. One that did not change its Skin, for the last Time, till _June_ the 26th, was given to the Proprietor of this Work; it spun up in the Leaves, on the 10th of _July_, and the _Moth_, _Fig._ 2. was bred on the 1st of _August_. Of eight _Moths_ that were produced, three were Females of the common Orange Kind, and five were Males, one of which only was all over of an Orange Colour. Amongst the _Caterpillars_ there was one
