This list numbers about 1012 species found 

 to date in the Province of Quebec. In " The 

 Canadian Entomologist," between the years 

 1868-"72, Mr. J. Pettit published a list of 1297 

 species of Coleoptera, collected by himself in 

 the neighborhood of Grimsby, Ontario. Many 

 additional species could be added to the Que- 

 bec list, as very little has been done in col- 

 lecting the small forms of Curculionid^e or 

 weevils. I have made no attempt at classifi- 

 cation, my object being to make it useful as 

 a future reference to young beginners in the 

 study of this branch of Entomology. 



ENTOMOLOGICAL REPORT FOR 1882. 

 The Report of the Entomological Society of 

 Ontario for 1882, is fraught with interesting 

 and instructive information for the Agricultu- 

 ralist and Entomologist. The subjects are 

 treated in an easy, pleasant way, that those 

 interested may read and learn. When I was 

 a youtn, studying insects, books containing 

 descriptions and life histories of species in- 

 habiting Canada could *not be obtained for 

 love or money. In 1843, there were a few 

 systematists and students in the United States, 

 but the papers then published were obscure to 

 a beginner. Now these reports are of inesti- 

 mable value to young Canadian students in 

 Entomology. The papers are largely illus- 

 trated by excellent electrotypes of injurious 

 and beneficial insects belonging to the various 

 Orders. The report contains the President's 

 address delivered at the Montreal meeting. 

 Six of the papers have been written by our 

 entomological neighbours, and ten by Cana- 

 dian writers. This is proper, as it should be; 

 entomological reciprocity benefits both counts 

 ries, and these mutual communications are 

 doina; good. — C.
