In Alarch six vessels were boarded on which were found 94 
lots, consisting of 1,523 parcels. In April ten vessels were 
boarded on which were found 87 lots, consisting of 1,465 par- 
cels. One parcel of palm seeds contained beetle larvae and all 
infested seeds were burned. 
One colony of cabbage worm parasites was liberated during 
the month. Owing to the small area of cabbages now growing, 
as well as to the reduction of the pest by fungi and other agencies, 
we have had to stop breeding the new parasite for the present, 
as it is difficult to procure sufficient hosts for the work. 
Very truly yours, 
Edw. AI. Ehrhorn, 
Superintendent of Entomology.
