evigua. But lately Pheidole has again become prevalent, and 
Mr. Crawford wondered if the present greater abundance of the 
house-fly was connected with the previous scarcity of the ant, 
as the latter is known to have some control of the house-fly 
maggots. Mr. Giffard also had noticed the prevalence of one or 
another of these ants at various times, Mr. Timberlake men- 
tioned similar observances, and that at one time when he was 
living on Lunalilo Street, the guinea ant was the most preva- 
lent. Mr. Fullaway reported the presence in great abundance of 
the yellow ant on mealy-bug material used in breeding lady- 
beetles, but that it caused no interference or injury, it merely 
living on sweets—the honeydew in connection with the mealy- 
bugs. 
Synonymy of the Fuller's Rose Beetle—Mr. Muir, at present 
in England, sent the following note on the synonymy of this 
beetle: In Bull. Soc. Ent., France, 1922, No. 8, p. 100, Hus- 
tache points out that our Fuller’s rose beetle (Aramigus fulleri 
Horn) is the same as Pantomorus godmani (Crotch). Both 
Mr. Chapman and Dr. Marshall have examined Crotch’s type 
and agree with Hustache. Our species must, therefore, be 
known in future as Pantomorus godmani (Crotch). The fol- 
lowing synonymy and distribution is given by Hustache: 
Pantomorus godmani (Crotch).

can origin, and was evidently introduced into the other regions 
named. 
Mr. Fullaway called to attention that this synonymy is given 
by Champion in the Entomologist’s Monthly Magazine, (3) 
VIII, p. 161, 1922.
