mens of this new Locustid in the clubhouse at Olaa, March 13, 
1922. This indicates that it is becoming numerous outside of 
Hilo, where it has been known for three years, Olaa being about 
eight miles from Hilo. He also reported that Matthias Newell 
had told him of finding a male at light in Hilo. This is the first 
time the male has been observed, although the females have 
been seen by scores at lights at the Hilo Hotel. 
Amnisolabis eteronoma.—Mr. Swezey reported finding this large 
earwig common in cane fields on Hawaii in March, 1922. It 
was usually under trash, but was also found in the soil while 
digging for wire worms. They were found at Hilo Sugar Com- 
pany, Laupahoehoe, and Honokaa. At the latter place they were 
also found in a rotten log above the cane fields at an elevation 
of about 2000 feet. 
Exillis lepidus—This Anthribid was found very abundant in 
dead Kukui twigs at Kaimuki by Mr. Swezey, March 15, 1922. 
The larvae were feeding in‘the pith of the dead twigs. A few 
pupae were found, and one had matured already, thus demon- 
strating what the insect was. 
Araeocerus fasciculatus—Mr. Swezey reported on the dissec- 
tion of eggs from a female of this beetle, and that they agreed 
with the description given of them by Mr. R. T. Cotton in 
Journal of Agricultural Research, XX, No. 8, p. 607, 1921. 
They were different from the description given by Mr. Swezey 
in Proc. Haw. Ent. Soc., IV, No. 3, p. 452, 1921. This latter 
description was from eggs that Mr. Swezey had found, and 
surmised them to be those of A. fasciculatus from the circum- 
stances of finding, and the fact that there was no other known 
species of beetle to which they could be referred. Now it is 
certainly known that the aforementioned eggs belong to some- 
thing else, and just what, remains to be discovered. 
Lasioderma serricorne.—The cigarette beetle was reported by 
Mr. Swezey as having been reared from a larva feeding in the 
pulp of a dried litchi nut handed to him by Dr. Lyon. 
Agromyza lantanae—Mr. Swezey reported results of germi- 
nation of lantana seeds that had been infested with maggots of 
this Agromyzid. From 100 infested seeds, retained until after 
emergence of flies, and then planted December 20, 1921, between
