Extract

On the evening of 17th of April, 1898, a ♀ of this species entered my room, and was bottled and not looked at again until the morning of the 19th, when it was found that the cyanide in the bottle was exhausted and that the moth was still alive and had laid a considerable number of eggs. The eggs were distributed through the cotton wool at the bottom of the bottle, and this had to be carefully pulled to pieces thread by thread to secure the eggs.
