  Yes. 
  I 
  found 
  a 
  grub 
  which 
  we 
  were 
  unable 
  to 
  rear. 
  Both 
  adults 
  

   and 
  larvse 
  are 
  killed 
  by 
  a 
  fungus 
  which 
  our 
  Mycologist 
  is 
  studying. 
  

  

  On 
  21st 
  September 
  1920 
  I 
  found 
  Oxycetonia 
  jucwida 
  feeding 
  on 
  

   Chrysanthemum 
  flowers 
  in 
  the 
  garden 
  at 
  Dow 
  Hill, 
  Kurseong 
  (elevation 
  

   6,000 
  feet). 
  

  

  To 
  my 
  list 
  of 
  crop 
  pests 
  two 
  more 
  Scolytids 
  may 
  be 
  added 
  ; 
  (1) 
  

   Hypothenemus 
  erudita, 
  Westw., 
  which- 
  bores 
  into 
  cumbu 
  stems, 
  and 
  

   (2) 
  Xyleborus 
  parvulus, 
  Eich., 
  which 
  bores 
  into 
  coconut 
  stems.
