♀. Eyes small, ciliate: palpi light ochreous with rough dark hairs; vestiture of head and thorax rough, hairy, dark gray; abdomen light gray with yellow terminal tuft. Primaries pale yellowish, heavily sprinkled with black, producing a dull olivaceous appearance; maculation distinct; t. a. line heavy, black, upright, forming three moderate outcurves of which the central one is the largest, t. p. line dentate, ercurved below costa, then inwardly oblique to inner margin with slight incurve below cell, faintly marked outwardly with pale yellow; median shade diffuse, oblique from costa across reniform, then close and parallel to t. p. line; orbicular moderately large, round, pale-filled, outlined in black; reniform rather narrow, upright, partially outlined in black and obscured by median shade; subterminal and terminal areas rather evenly dark smoky; s. t. line obscure, pale, rather even, emphasized by slight smoky preceding shade; fringes blackish in basal half, cut opposite veins by pale ochreous, paler smoky in outer half.

Aristotelia Youngella, sp. nov.—Head. antennæ, palpi, thorax abdomen and legs shining iridescent green. Basal half of front wing and outer half along costa black or very dark brown, heavily overlaid with iridescent green. The dark basal half is outwardly margined by the black ground colour, owing to absence of the iridescent scales at this point. All the outer half of wing, except the dark costal streak, is dull ochreous, inwardly margined by a pale yellow line, the latter adjoining the dark line of ground colour outlining the basal half.

During his study of the ecology of red pine plantations, Mr. J. L. Martin, Forest Insect Laboratory, Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, found a species of Laspeyresia feeding as larvae under the bark of living trees. This species is described here to enable him to report on the results of his investigation.Laspeyresia resinosae, new speciesAntenna, head, thorax, and abdomen powdery-grey. Basal half of forewing grey; outer half blackish, with cupreous reflections, the tips of the scales ochreous; outer three-fifths of costa with four pairs of silvery-white geminations; the basal pair of geminations fuse into a single, angular, transverse, shiny-leaden fascia, that extends to the trailing margin just beyond the middle; a similar fascia arises from the second costal geminations, and extends only to the fold; a third leaden fascia arises from the apical geminations, extends irregularly to the tornus, and is broken into three almost equal sections; the central portions of the second and third fasciae are narrowly margined with a few black scales, representing a very poorly defined ocelloid patch; outer margin with a very distinct black line basad to the shiny leaden fringe; the black line cut by three white dashes, two opposite the breaks in the outer, transverse fascia, and the third at the tornal end of that fascia. Hind wing powdery-grey; fringe dirty-white with darker basal line. Under-surface and legs silvery-grey. Tarsi black banded. Wingspread: 9.5-10.5 mm. Moth in late June and early July.

Nemoria darwiniata Dyar. A single ♀, June 15.Nemoria hudsonaria Tayl. Quite common during the latter half of June. In a few of the specimens the inner transverse lines are obsolete and these could as well be placed under unilinearia Tayl. as under hudsonaria. I am not sure at the present time whether the differences given by Taylor are of specific value and until I can study the matter further I use the older of the two names.

Cassianastraea is an enigmatic colonial Triassic cnidarian first described as a coral but subsequently referred to the Hydrozoa. We report here the first occurrence in Canada of fossils we designate as Cassianastraea sp. from the Williston Lake region of British Columbia. The specimens come from older collections of the Geological Survey of Canada, collected in Upper Triassic (Carnian) strata assigned to either the Ludington or Baldonnel Formations. While well known in reef associations of the former Tethys region, Cassianiastraea is relatively rare in North America. The Carnian Baldonnel Formation contains the earliest coral reefs from the North American craton and we suspect that Cassianastraea sp. also came from this reef association.

Sericosema wilsonensis C. 8; S. Two males which seem to belong to this species according to genitalia were taken on July 8; the species differs from juturnaria in its sinaller size, lack of the strong ruddy tinges on the underside and in the position of the dark line on underside of secondaries which in wilsonensis is nearer the middle of the wing and more evenly rounded. There is a further specimen in the Canadian National Collection from Salmon Arm, B. C., July 18 (A. A. Dennys). The species does not appear to have been previously recorded from British Columbia.
