Mr. Cockerell was of opinion that the genus Anthocharis was by no means an ancient genus, and that it arose directly from an old Pieris stock, and that probably on the American continent. Messrs. Weir, South, and Tutt made some observations on Mr. Cockerell's. paper. Mr. Wilkinson exhibited several species of scorpions; and Mr. White, some of the larger species of Arachnida.--H. W.
