1 6 The Ohio Naturalist. [Vol. X, No. 1, 



Miss Detmers reported on a Fungus probably due to an As- 

 comycete following the work of Sapsuckers on Ironwood. Prof. 

 Hambleton recalled seeing stumps of the Ironwood covered with 

 the fungus. 



W. C. Morse, Miss Hollister and Prof. Hambleton were 

 appointed as a committee to nominate a staff for the Ohio 

 Naturalist. 



Orton Hall, June 7, 1909. 



The last meeting of the year was called to order by the Presi- 

 dent, Miss Freda Detmers. W. C. O'Kane was unable to present 

 his paper on the Coccidae. J. F. Zimmer presented an inter- 

 esting paper on "Maple Tree Insects." The discussion was 

 largely confined to the commoner forms of economic importance.

 discussion which followed. Chalmers De Puc then presented
