THE EEPOET OF THE No. 36 



The annual outing at St. Hilaire, on Victoria Day, was well attended, but the 

 backward season made the captures of insects much smaller than usual, but among 

 the Coleoptera several good catches were made and the Lepidopterists had the 

 pleasure of finding two specimens of a little Heliothid moth, probably undescribed, 

 closely resembling Heliaca nexilis of the Eocky Mountains. No species of the 

 genus have hitherto been recorded from the East. 



At the January meeting we had the pleasure of a visit from Mr. F. H. "Wolley 

 Dod, of Millarville, Alberta, who gave an account of his visits to collectors of 

 N'octuidaa throughout Canada. It was hoped that the Eev. Dr. Fyles would be able 

 to attend our meeting this evening, but it could not be arranged. 



The annual meeting of the parent Society at Guelph was attended by the 

 President and the Secretary. 



The report of the Treasurer shows a balance on hand of $76.79. 



The Curator reports that the specimens in his charge are in good condition 

 but that no additions have been made to the collection and that the members have 

 made little use of either the specimens or the books. It is probable in connection 

 with the preparation of the List of Insects of the Province of Quebec that a con- 

 siderable number of specimens of the more neglected orders will be collected, 

 determined and eventually find their way into our collection. The books added to the 

 library consist of a copy of Pierce's " Genitalia of British Noctuidge," the current 

 volume of the Canadian Entomologist, and the entomological publications of N.Y. 

 State. 



Eespectfully submitted on behalf of the Council. 



(Signed) Albert F. Winn, Sec.-Treas.

 Secretary-Treasurer; L. Gibb, Curator and Librarian; Members of Council — G.
