   At 
  a 
  meeting 
  of 
  the 
  South 
  London 
  Entomological 
  and 
  Natural 
  

   History 
  Society, 
  Mr. 
  W. 
  J. 
  Lucas 
  exhibited 
  specimens 
  among 
  

   some 
  "recent 
  uninvited 
  visitors 
  to 
  Kew 
  Gardens, 
  from 
  the 
  

   Belgian 
  Congo." 
  (Entomologist, 
  XXXII, 
  p. 
  43, 
  1899.) 
  

  

  I 
  find 
  no 
  records 
  of 
  the 
  occurrence 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  in 
  the 
  

   United 
  States; 
  but 
  J. 
  B. 
  Smith, 
  in 
  his 
  Catalogue 
  of 
  New 
  Jersey 
  

   Insects 
  (1899), 
  mentions 
  two 
  related 
  species, 
  Panchlora 
  viridis 
  

   Burm., 
  and 
  P. 
  exoleta 
  Burm. 
  as 
  "found 
  occasionally 
  in 
  cities 
  and 
  

   towns 
  imported 
  with 
  tropical 
  fruits." 
  Another 
  near 
  relative, 
  

   Leticophoea 
  surinamensis 
  (Fabr.), 
  has 
  been 
  reported 
  from 
  New 
  

   Orleans, 
  eating 
  palms 
  and 
  ferns 
  in 
  a 
  green-house; 
  and 
  from 
  

   Puerta 
  Gorda 
  in 
  the 
  extreme 
  south 
  of 
  Florida 
  (Insect 
  Life, 
  V, 
  

   pp. 
  201,

  Mr. 
  Kotinsky 
  stated 
  that 
  Mr. 
  A. 
  N. 
  Caudell, 
  Orthopterist 
  of 
  

   the 
  U. 
  S. 
  National 
  Museum 
  at 
  Washington, 
  had 
  determined 
  the 
  

   pink-winged 
  Tryxalid 
  to 
  be 
  a 
  species 
  of 
  Atractomorpha*.

  The 
  Insects 
  of 
  Tantalus 
  

  

  As 
  a 
  subject 
  for 
  the 
  Annual 
  Presidential 
  Address 
  I 
  have 
  

   chosen 
  to 
  give 
  an 
  account 
  of 
  the 
  endemic 
  insects, 
  that 
  are 
  found 
  

   on 
  that 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  Honolulu 
  mountains 
  known 
  as 
  Tantalus 
  and 
  

  

  * 
  Since 
  identified 
  as 
  .4. 
  crenaticeps 
  Blanch, 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Swezey 
  and 
  con- 
  

   firmed 
  by 
  Mr. 
  L. 
  Bruner. 
  This 
  species 
  is 
  found 
  in 
  Australia 
  and 
  New 
  

   Guinea, 
  and 
  has 
  been 
  accidentally 
  introduced 
  into 
  the 
  Hawaiian 
  Isles.
