The serial Indian Museum Notes, issued by the Trustees of the 

 Indian Museum, Calcutta, under the authority of the Government of 

 India, Revenue and Agricultural Department, is to take the place of Notes 

 on Economic Entomology, of which two numbers have appeared. For the 

 views expressed, the authors of the respective notes are alone responsible. 



The parts of the serial are published from time to time as materials 

 accumulate. Communications are invited ; they should be written on one 

 side only of the paper and addressed to— 



THE EDITOR, 



Indian Museum Notes, 



Calcutta. 



Correspondence connected with Economic Entomology should be 

 accompanied by specimens of: the insects to which reference is made. 

 Caterpillars, grubs, and other soft-bodied insects can be sent in alcohol • 

 chrysalids and cocoons, alive, and packed lightly in leaves or grass • 

 other insects, dried and pinned, or wrapped in soft paper. Live insects 

 should be sent when there is a reasonable probability of their surviving 

 the journey. Caterpillars, grubs, and other immature insects can often 

 be only approximately determined; they should therefore, where possible 

 be accompanied by specimens of the mature insects into which they 

 transform ; when this is not possible, they should still be sent, as they 

 can always be determined approximately, and uncertainty must neces- 

 sarily arise in discussing insects when actual reference to the specimens 

 cannot be made. 



Insects forwarded for determination should in all eases be accom- 

 panied by a detailed report showing precisely in what their economic 

 importance consists.
