EXTOMOLOGICAL NoTES. 



We congratulate Insect Life upon its 

 greatlv improved appearance. The last num- 

 ber is given up to an excellent report of the 

 last meeting of the association of economic 

 entomologists and about a third of it to the 

 admirable address of the president, Mr. 

 L. O. Howard, which will interest all ento- 

 mologists. 



Parts iS and 19 of Moore's Lepidoptera 

 Indica treat of the Eljmniinae and begin the 

 Amathusiinae, a new subfamily of eleven 

 genera which Moore separates from tlie 

 Morphinae: the light thrown on the matter 

 bv the earlv stages appears to be but slight 

 and we question if the differences pointed out 

 are of more than tribal importance. 



Mr. J. H. Emerton has recently published 

 in the Transactions of the Connecticut 

 Academy with four plates a list of Canadian 

 spiders, including descriptions of new or 

 insufficiently known forms. It comprises 

 about one hundred species but none are 

 included from beyond the Rocky Mountains. 



To the Bihang to the Swedish academy's 

 Handlingar for 1S92 only recenth- received in 

 this country, Schott contributes a paper on 

 Califomian CoUembola with four excellent 

 plates: iS species of ii genera are discussed.
