ENTOMOLOGICAL NEWS, 



[The Conductors of Entomological News solicit and will thankfully receive items 

 of news likely to interest its readers from any source. The author's name will be given 

 in each case, for the information of cataloguers and bibliographers.] 



To Contributors. — All contributions will be considered and passed upon at out 

 earliest convenience, and, as far as may be, will be published according to date of recep- 

 tion. Entomological News has reached a circulation, both in numbers and circumfer- 

 ence, as to make it necessary to put " copy " into the hands of the printer, for each num- 

 ber, three weeks before date of issue. This should be remembered in sendiiig special or 

 important matter for a certain issue. Twenty-five " extras," without change in form, 

 will be given free, when they are wanted ; and this should be so stated on the MS., along 

 with the number desired. The receipt of all papers will be acknowledged. — Ed. 



Philadelphia, Pa., April, 1904. 



Convocation week of the American Association for the 

 Advancement of Science will be held in Philadelphia during 

 December, 1904, and January, 1905, and at that time the 

 Association of Economic Entomologists and the Entomologi- 

 cal Club of the A. A. A. S. will meet in the same city. We 

 hope that the Entomological meetings will be a great success 

 and largely attended. Philadelphia may be called the cradle 

 of Entomology in America, and there is much here that should 

 interest visiting entomologists. There is no doubt but that 

 the Entomological Section of the Academj^ of Natural Sciences, 

 the American Entomological Society and the Feldman Collect- 

 ing Social will do all in their power to entertain visiting ento- 

 mologists. It may be early to mention these facts, but we do 

 so that all desiring to come can arrange their plans in advance.
