ig the eleventh making only occasional mention of previously ascer- 
dned facts. In the latter report, two of the special enemies 
f the strawberry w T ere discussed at length. 
The first article which I have seen containing an attempt to 
imm arize what was known of the strawberry insects, is by William 
aunders, of London, Ontario; and was published in the Third Re- 
Drt of the Ontario Entomological Society, for 1872. This includes 
even species ; and in the same publication for the following vear, 
supplementary article was printed, adding one more. 
In the 20th annual report of the Massachusetts State Board of 
gnculture, published in 1873, Dr. A. S. Packard, Jr., discusses at 
ngth the injuries done to the strawberry by the common white 
■ub and by the larva of Cotalpa, and also mentions small snails 
5 enemies of the plant. This paper was reprinted, during the same 
iar, in the “American Naturalist” (September, pp. 524 to 548). 
In 1875, a few species were treated under this especial head, in 
report on economic entomology by Dr. Packard, published in the 
eport of the United States Geological and Geographical Survey of 
;e Territories for 1875. 
Prof. G. H. Perkins, in 1877, summarized the known facts relat- 
g to fifteen species, in a paper on Injurious Insects, published in 
e Report of the Vermont State Board of Agriculture; and to this 
>t the present writer added ten species, in an address on Insects 
Meeting the Strawberry, delivered at New Orleans before the Mis- 
ssippi Valley Horticultural Society, in 1883, and published in the 
ansactions of the society for that year. 
Besides the above, the strawberry pests have been briefly dis¬ 
used by Miss Treat, in a little work on Injurious Insects of the 
arm and Garden, published in 1882, where six species are men¬ 
ded; and more at length by Prof. G. H. French, in the Trans- 
tions of the Illinois State Horticultural Society for 1881, where 
a species are discussed; and by Mr. Saunders in his admirable 
)rk on Insects Injurious to Fruit, published in 1883 (twenty species).
