234 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST. 



new enemy to the horticulturist is figured and described — " the Callimor- 

 pha Pear Caterpillar "(C. Lecoiitei Boisd., var. fulvicosta Clemens.) The 

 larva of Aci'onycta superans Guen., he records as affecting the leaves of 

 Plum trees, and gives a full description of its larval and imago states.* 

 Valuable descriptions are also given of the " Four-striped Plant-bug" 

 ( Caps us quadrivittatus Say,), affecting the Currant, and of the "White 

 Pine Leaf-louse" (Mytilaspis pinifoliae Fitch ). 



Xotes on Chalcididce. Parts iii. and iv. By Francis Walker, F. L. S. 

 London, Janson, 187 1. These pamphlets, for which we have to thank 

 the author, contain numerous descriptions, illustrated by occasional wood- 

 cuts, of species of Chalcididie from all parts of the world. 



Lc Naturaliste Canadien. Edited by M. L ; Abbe Provancher (Quebec), 

 has now reached, like ourselves, the close of its third volume. We may 

 congratulate each other upon having survived the most perilous period in 

 the life of a scientific journal, and feel a well assured hope that we may 

 both continue, in our respective ends of the country, to do what we can 

 to promote the study and knowledge of the natural history of the Do- 

 minion. Though designed especially for our French-speaking compatriots, 

 we trust that Le Naturaliste will acquire an extensive circulation also 

 among the Anglo-Saxon portion of the community. Our readers will 

 find in its pages much to interest them of an Entomological character, 

 as well as other departments of Zoology and Botany. 



Les Petites Nouvelks Entomologiqucs (A. M. E. Deyrolles fils, 19 Rue 

 de la Monnaie, Paris, France), though sadly interrupted during the siege 

 and subsequent troubles in Paris, was at once resumed upon the cessation 

 of hostilities, and is now conducted with quite as much spirit as formerly. 

 We gladly translate from its pages much that is of more than local interest, 

 from time to time. (We can supply a few copies at $1.25 per annum to 

 our subscribers). 



Errata. — On page 163, at the sixteenth line from the top, for 

 "intercepted" read "interrupted;" on page 182, at the third line from 

 the bottom, for " Cuniostoma " read " Cemiostoma ;" on page 183, at 

 the third line from the bottom, and on page 184, at the fourteenth line 

 from the top, for "pupae" read "proper." 



* Our specimens of this moth, to which Mr. Le Baron refers, were determined for us 

 by Mr. Walker of the British Museum ; we think that the determination may be relied 

 on, although Guenee's description is so meagre.
