An interesting contribution by Dr. FJetclrer, entitled “Entomological Record, 1901,” has just appeared in the 32nd Annual Report of the Entomological Society of Ontario. This, besides giving a list of the active workers in Canada, includes careful notes on rarities, etc., taken during the year. It is the intention of the Society to continue this Record from yeart to year, and as this will undoubtedly prove useful to entomologists throughout Canada, it is hoped that collectors in the dominion will try to make it as complete as possible. Records of interesting specimens captured, either from the standpoint of distribution or rarity, will be acceptable, and should be sent to Dr. James Fletcher, Central Experimental Farm, Ottawa. Specimens unknown to collectors will gladly be identified.

The larvæ of this Noctuid moth were again found at Ottawa the past season, in beds of Irises, on the grounds of the Central Experimental Farm. They were not, however, at all numerous, and did not do any appreciable harm this years. Two larvæ were collected on July 28, one of which was inflated; the other pupated on Aug. 1, the moth emerging on Sept. 7. Another larva was found on Aug. 4, the moth appearing on Sept. 15. The pupa of the former specimen was much larger than any of those obtained in 1903, an account of which appeared in the last Annual Report of the Entomological Society of Ontario. This pupa measured 30 mm. in length and 7.5 in width.

In the proceedings of the Zoological Society of London, Feb. 17th, 1880, is an interesting contribution to the Tineidæ chiefly of this country, by Lord Walsingham, entitled “On Some New and Little Known Species of Tineidæ.” The author states, from a comparison of specimens and figures of Adela schlœeri Zell. (which I had previously recognized as Adela (Dicte) coruscifasciella Cham.), that it is identical with A. Ridingsella Clem., preserved in the collection of the Entomological Society of Philadelphia; a fact which I should not have suspected from Dr. Clemens' description of A. Ridingsella.

With the December number, the Canadian Entomologist completed its twenty-fifth volume. The Council of the Entomological Society of Ontario have endeavored to make it as useful as possible to the working entomologists of North America. The publications of our Society consist chiefly of the Annual Report published by the Hon. Minister of Agriculture and Arts of Ontario, in his annual report to the Legistaure, and the monthly magazine, the Canadian Entomologist. The former of these is devoted particularly to papers of economic interest, and is distributed not only to our own members, but to every member of the Fruit Growers' Association of Ontario, to members of Parliament, the Mechanics's Institutes, etc., making an issue of about 6,000 copies.

In the 69th Annual Report of the Entomological Society of Ontario (1938), pages 56 and 57, the writer compares the Rhagoletis reared from dogwood (Cornus Amomum Mill.) with the morphologically similar apple maggot from apple and hawthorn.

This insect in the imago state closely resembles A psi of Europe, and has been, ans we believe still is, doubtfully regarded as identical by several eminent European entomologists. We thinks, however that a comparison of the larval forms of the two insects will help to dispel any doubts which may be entertained regarding the dissimilarity of the species. The following descriprion of the larva of occidentalis has already appeared in part, in the Annual Report of the Entomological Society of Ontario to the Commissioner of Agriculture for 1870, where it is given.
