The WHITE-BUTTERFLY with GREEN VEINS. This also breeds twice a Year: Its first Brood is in _May_, the second in _July_. The _Caterpillar_ feeds on _Cabbage_, _&c._ like the foregoing, ties itself up in the same Manner, and the _Fly_ is bred in _July_. It is very common, and may be taken in most Gardens.

We are obliged to Mr. _Rosel_ for the Discovery of the Progress of this and many other curious _Flies_. He says the _Caterpillar_ feeds on the _Brassica Sylvestris_, or _Wild Cole_, whereon the _Fly_ lays its Eggs. The _Caterpillar_ is found in _June_ and _July_, at which Time it changes into a _Chrysalis_. It remains in that State through the Winter, and the _Fly_ is produced in _May_. It is very common in Fields and green Lanes, and breeds but once a Year. See _Rosel_, Cl. 2. Tab. 8. The Mountain-Curran, and the Wild Cole. _Ribes Alpinus dulcis_. J. B. _Brassica Sylvestris_.

On the 8th of _July_, 1748. I took with my Net several Females of this sort of _Fly_, which is very common amongst the _Hay-Grass_. I put them in a Box, taking Care to hurt them as little as possible, with full Hopes that some of them would lay their Eggs; and according to my Wishes the next Morning I had 160 Eggs, which, when first laid, were of a fine yellow Colour, but in less than a Minute’s Time they became perfectly white, and are not glutinous like many other Sorts. On the 27th and 28th of the same Month the young _Caterpillars_ appeared, and were put on common Grass to feed: They continued extremely small for some Months, and, notwithstanding great Care was taken of them, only three _Flies_ were produced, the rest all dying in the _Caterpillar_ State. The different Changes observed in these three were as follows. Caterpillars changed Went to The _Flies_ their Skins. _Chrysalis_. were bred. {_1st April_, 11 _May_ 6 _May_ 26 | _June_ 14 | _July_ 11} The {_2d April_, 28 _May_ 21 _June_ 6 | _June_ 30 | _July_ 23} 1748 {_3d May_, 1 _May_ 21 _June_ 9 | _July_ 4 | _July_ 27} The _Caterpillars_ that produced these _Flies_ changed to _Chrysalis_ on the Ground, without fastening themselves to any Thing, and were fed all the Time with common Grass, and it is presumed changed their Skins twice before the 11th of _April_.
