935. Eulecanium fletcheri (Ckll.). — E. pallidor (Ckll. and King). In 1907, 

 the -^vriter found this species on White Cedar at Guelph. It was originally described 

 from specimens found by Dr. Fletcher abundant on a hedge of Arbor vUce and on 

 trees of the same species at Stittsville, Ontario, fifteen miles from Ottawa. This 

 species is nearly always parasitized by a Chalcid. In 1908, E. fletcheri was found 

 on the Eed Cedar {Juniperus virginiana) at Guelph and Hamilton, Ontario. 



946. Eulecanium lymani (King). Eecorded by Mr. King on a young Oak 

 at Quebec city and Korth Hatley, Quebec. This may be the same as E. cerasifex. 



950. Eulecanium nigrofasciatum (Perg.). This strikingly marked species 

 has been received from Walkerville on Soft Maple and on Peach at St. Catharines, 

 Ontario. In both cases the trees were badly infested and no parasites were found. 

 As far as I am aware it has not spread to any other parts of the Province. 



958. Eulecanium pyri (Schr.). King records this species on Apple trees in 

 Prince Edward Island. 



959. Eulecanium quercifex (Fitch). — E. quercHronis (Fitch); E. antennatum 

 var. (Ckll.). This species occurs on Oak (Quercus coccinea) at Ottawa, Ontario 

 and on Oak (Quercus rubra) from Jubilee Point, Eice Lake, Ontario. 



965. Eulecanium. rosce (King). Eecorded by Mr. King in his account of the 

 Scales of British North America. I have not found E. cerasifex on any cultivated 

 or wild species of rose. The species was found in Eosebush at Sherbrooke, Quebec. 



974. Eulecanium vini (Bouche). , This species has been found by the writer 

 on Grape vines in the Niagara district and to some extent on Grape vines in the 

 City of Toronto. Mr. King received specimens from Dr. Fletcher at Ottawa, on 

 Spiraea salicifolia. These scales have in all probability been imported on nursery 

 stock from Germany. 



993. Saissetia hemispliaricum (Targ.). It is a very common scale in con- 

 servatories in all the Provinces. Its favorite hosts are Oleander, Cocos, Sago Palm, 

 Croton and Orchids. 



1008. PhysoTcermes picece (Schr.). The Spruce Physokermes was found at- 

 tacking the Norway Spruce on the College grounds at Guelph. The domesticated 

 bees collected wax from this species. This species has been reported from one or 

 two other parts of Ontario.

1036. Chionaspis americana (Johnson). This species was found on American 

 Elm (Ulmus americana) at Guelph. 



1055. Chionaspis furfura (Fitch). The Scurfy Scale, though widely dis- 

 tributed through Ontario and the Eastern Provinces, is seldom found in so great 

 abundance as the Oyster Shell. Badly infested trees or other plants are very much 

 weakened and not infrequently killed as a result. Many kinds of trees and shrubs 

 are attacked by this scale, but the most common are the Apple, Mountain Ash, 

 Japan Quince, Horse Chestnut, Hawthorn, White Ash, Currant and Gooseberry. 



1063. Chionaspis lintneri (Comstock) is found at Guelph on Alder {Alnua 

 incana) ,Dogwood (Cornus stolonifera) . It has been received from Ottawa and 

 KoTideau in Ontario. 



1073. Chionaspis pinifoUre (Fitch). The Pine-leaf scale is very common in 

 many parts of the Dominion. It has not, however, so far as we know, caused any 

 perceptible injury to the trees, although reports from New York State go to show 

 that whenever it is abundant on a tree it does much damage. This scale confines 

 its attacks solely to Conifers. The writer has found it at Guelph on the following 

 Pines: White, Bull, Austrian, Scotch, Jack and Dwarf Mugho, and also on the 

 Norway and White Spruce.
