Entomology 



The Honorary Curator of Entomology, Otto H. Swezey, calls 

 attention to the material collected during 1919 which, with the ac- 

 cumulated collection (4500 specimens) of the two previous years, 

 makes a large amount of pinned material waiting to be sorted and 

 classified. 



The material collected during 1919 by various members of the staff is 

 as follows : 



E. H. Bryan: ridges and valleys near Honolulu. Oahu, 860 specimens; 

 Ewa and Barber's Point, Oahu, 70 specimens ; Waianae Mountains, Oahu, 

 50 specimens; Waihee and lao Valleys, Maui, 170 specimens. C. M. Cooke, 

 Jr. : Kokee, Kauai. 6 specimens. Charles N. Forbes : Haleakala, Maui, 22 

 specimens. John F. G. Stokes: Honaunau, Kona, Hawaii, 180 specimens. 

 Otto H. Swezey : Glenwood, Hawaii, 142 specimens ; Kilauea. Hawaii, 625 

 specimens; Hualalai and Kona, Hawaii, 1250 specimens; ridges and valleys 

 near Honolulu, Oahu, 500 specimens ; Ewa and Barber's Point, Oahu, 140 

 specimens ; Waianae Mountains, Oahu, 240 specimens. John W. Thompson : 

 Honolulu, Oahu, 20 specimens. Total 4275 specimens. 



Besides this lot of material, quite a quantity was purchased from Mr. 

 John A. Kusche of San Francisco, who had spent a few months collecting 

 insects in the region of the head waters of the Waimea river, Kauai. Of 

 this material 2000 specimens (chiefly moths) have been pinned up, and 

 partially sorted and determined. Seventy-eight specimens of rare and inter- 

 esting butterflies and moths of the western United States, were also received 

 from Mr. Kusche. 



LlBR/\RY 



During the absence of the Librarian, Elizabeth B. Higgins, 

 only routine work associated with cataloguing, binding, caring for 

 exchanges, and distribution of publications, has been carried on. 

 Several manuscripts, including the journal of Lucia Ruggles, have 

 been copied for preservation. Accession to the library by gift, pur- 

 chase, and exchange during 1919 will be incorporated in the report 

 for 1920. I ,(, I
