THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST.

Dr. Fletcher also sent some blackberry twigs infested with Aulacaspis 

 rosce, which he received from Mr. J. D. Evans, of Trenton, Ont. They 

 seem to be particularly abundant on the lower branches of the bushes (as 

 is usually the case with this species). The species are from the same 

 plantation where Eulecanium Fitchi was so remarkably abundant last 

 summer. 



Just recently I have received from Rev. Dr. Fyles, Aspidiotus 

 hederce, Vail., on ivy (Hedera); Lecanium hesperidum, L., on flowering 

 maple (Abut Hon) and on Euonymus sp., and Dactylopius citri on passion- 

 flower, all found in a dwelling house at Levis, Quebec. The Dactylopius 

 is new to the Canadian list and perhaps has been taken to be the very 

 common pest of the greenhouse, Dactylopius longispinus, Targ. At this 

 writing (February 24, 1902) there remain only two other species of 

 CoccidcB from British North America not studied and probably new, 

 received from Mr. John Dearness.
