 papers of interest to the Naturalist, among which we would especially

 Robert Ridgeway."' The subscription price is $3 a year in advance, or

The Cincinnatti Quarterly Journal of Science, Vol. II, No. 4, October, 

 1875. The October number of this valuable quarterly contains two 

 papers on Entomology, one on the Tineina of Colorado, by our esteemed 

 friend and contributor, V. T. Chambers, of Covington, Kentucky ; the 

 other on Lepidopterous Larvae, by A. G. Weatherby. Mr Chambers is 

 at present residing in Colorado, and his paper gives the results of personal 

 observations on the Tineina of Colorado, many of which have been taken 

 at altitudes of from 7,000 to 11,500 feet. In it he gives descriptions of 

 twenty-two new species, besides references to others already described. 

 These were all captured or bred from July 20th to Sept. 1st. Among 

 others, Mr. Chambers has taken in this far distant locality CEcophora 

 borcasclla, first described from specimens sent to him from London, Ont., 

 by the Editor of this journal, rmd Argyrcsthia gocdastella, hitherto known 

 in this country only from specimens captured at Quebec by M. Belanger, 

 thus proving a very wide range for these tiny creatures. 



Canadian Entomologist. — Having had several of the earlier num- 

 bers of our journal reprinted, including index for Vol. I, we are now 

 prepared to furnish full sets of our Entomologist, or any back numbers 

 required.
