﻿WEST COAST NEWS NOTES 



[In this department we hope to give in most numbers of the Journal 

 some idea of the doings and movements of western entomologists, notices 

 of publications of interest to western students, notices of entomological 

 meetings, etc. To this end, we hope that students or collectors will send in 

 all items of entomological interest about themselves or others. Address : Mr. 

 Fordyce Grinnell, Jr., 572 N. Marengo Ave., Pasadena, Cal.]
