Pupa digging was resorted to, but nothing very special wastaken in this way, nine-tenths of those dug being Taeniocampa incerta. On a Gynandromorphous Amorpha populi. {With 2 plates.) By T. A. CHAPMAN, The Rev. C. R. N. Burrows has mounted the head and genitaliaof a gynandromorphous A. populi, given to him by Mr. L. , and has permitted me to examine the specimen. Amorphapopuli appears to afford moKe gynandromorphs than any otherLepidopteron. Herr Bartel collected records of 73 in 1900, Tutt in1902 refers to records of 79 specimens, and hardly a year passes with-out a record of one or more examples. It does not, however, happenthat I have found any detailed account, or figure, of the genitalia of aspecimen. In Mr. Burrows specimen the left side is male the right sidefemale. The head shows a left <? antenna and a right $ one. The. Camera outlines of (1) left ( j ) palpus, (2) right ( ? ), (3) Two joints of left (i) antenna, about joints 13 or 14. (4) Two joints from right ( ? ) from about same position. X 15. 148 THE entomologists RECORD. labial palpi differ largely in size, the left being 4-8mm, long, the rightonly 2-6mm. The left is even wider in proportion, but measurementwould be misleading as the 2nd joint has been torn in mounting. The structure of the genitalia will be better understood by referenceto the photographs (by Mr. F. N. Clark) of Mr. Burrows specimen,and of the normal ^ and 2 structures of normal specimens, whichare presented herewith x 12J. I have numbered the parts so as toshow the correspondences. It is curious that whilst there appears to be a complete $ sidedeft), there is not only the other (right) side (completely) 3 , but malestructures of the left (or female) side are also represented.
