AbstractNorth American Ips of Group II (Hopping, 196îb) are I. emarginatus (Leconre) and I. knattsi Swaine. They are the only Ips having the third declivital spine emarginate ar the tip. They breed in various species of pine. The distribution of I. emarginatus is from southern British Columbia to California and eastward to Montana. I. knausi is found in Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona. A key to the species is given. I. plastographus (Leconte) is the sole representative of Group III. It is the only four-spined Ips with the sutures of the autennal club strongly angled at the middle. I. plastographus breeds in species of pine. It occurs from southern British Columbia southward in the western United States and through Mexico into Guatemala. Hosts and more detailed distributions are given for species in Groups IT and III.

AbstractGroup VII of North American Ips contains I. thomasi, new species, I. borealis Swaine and I. swainei R. Hopping. They are less than 4.0 mm. long and females have the front of the head or at least the vertex smooth and shining, impunctate, or with very fine sparse punctures; males are more coarsely granulate-punctate on the frons. The species are described and a key is given. All breed in Picea in Canada and northern United States.

As noted below the two North American species described in Syndipnus by workers appear to belong in other genrra. In Europe the gunus is represented by nearly a score of species and has been reviewed in recent years by two writers (1, 2). North American collections contain very few representatives of the genus; after combining the material in the National Collection with that from the United States National Museum, the latter kindly loaned to me by Mr. R. A. Cushman, only thirty-seven specimens are available for study.

A new species, Pholis clemensi, referred to the family Pholidae, is named and described from 12 specimens taken in southern British Columbia waters and the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Pholis clemensi is compared with other members of the genus, and a key is given to the North American species.

There are five known North American species in the genus Hylobius; H. pales (Hbst.), H. congener Dalla Torre, H. pinicola (Couper), H. radicis Buch., and H. warreni Wood. In recent years four of these species have increased considerably in economic importance in central and eastern Canada and the eastern United States; H. pales and H. radicis attacking pines and H. pinicola and H. warreni attacking spruces and pines. H. congener occurs only in small numbers and little is known about its ecology. It is important, therefore, to be able to separate these species readily in the field.

Working over some neglected material, I found, to my surprise, that the specimens of Ochodœus colleted by me last year in Arizona are separable into three distinct species, none of which agree with the descriptions of the North American species. A few years ago my brother sent me from California, with some other material, two specimens of what I take to be an Ochadœus. Unfortunately, I misplaced one of the specimens, and not wishing to dissect the single remaining one, I leave this species in this genus for the present, till more material is available.

In a letter to a friend in the United States dated May 16, 1969, a leading Colombian sociologist declared:I have been trying to disattach myself from portions of the North American heritage which I had received, and with which I find myself increasingly at odds. For this reason, I cannot identify myself with any institution of the United States that would uphold or sustain the present economic and social policies pursued toward the Nations of the Third World.

The genus Gnathodus, as at present accepted, includes forms closely allied to Cicadula, but differing in having only two apical cells in the wing. They are of a weaker build than species of Cicadula, and a characteristic appearance from above makes them readily distinguishable from any of that genus. The species are very variable and difficult to define. They are small, more or less slender, greenish, yellowish, or whitish Jassids, usually without distinct markings. The ocelli are distant from the eyes. The clypeus usually somewhat exceeds the genæ. The ovipositor rarely exceeds the pygofers. In the United States at least, most of the species are of very wide distribution.

Three tectonostratigraphic successions are established from remapping of the area near Barkerville and Cariboo River. The first, of Late Proterozoic to Cambrian sediments, was deposited on the shallow to moderately deep platformal shelf west of and derived from the exposed North American craton. The second is an unconformably overlying Ordovician to Permian sequence of sedimentary and volcanic rocks representing a basinal environment with periodic highs. These packages of sediments were deposited on the North American craton and its western transitional extensions. The third succession, composed of oceanic chert and basalt of the Permo-Pennsylvanian Antler Formation, was thrust eastward over the other two during the early Mesozoic. The three successions were folded, faulted, and metamorphosed during the mid-Mesozoic Columbian Orogeny. The Devono-Mississippian Cariboo Orogeny, which was thought to have affected all of the first sequence and part of the second, could not be documented in its type locality. The geology of the Barkerville – Cariboo River area has many similarities with that of Selwyn Basin and Cassiar platform of northern British Columbia and Yukon.

The four North American species of Evernia, E. divaricata (L.) Ach., E. mesomorpha Nyl., E. perfragilis Llano, and E. prunastri (L.) Ach., are discussed from the standpoint of taxonomy, distribution, and ecology. The North American distributions of E. divaricata and E. perfragilis are mapped for the first time. A puzzling lichen found on the ground in alpine areas from New Mexico north to Alberta is regarded as an ecological variant of E. divaricata.
