Proceedings of the Fifth Annual Meeting of the Pacific 
Slope Branch of the American Association of Economic 
Entomologists 
The fifth annual meeting of the Pacific Slope Branch of the American 
Association of Economic Entomologists was held in Room 211, Science 
Hall, University of Washington, Seattle, Wash., June 17-18, 1920. 
The first meeting was called to order at 9.30 o’clock a. m., June 17, 
by Prof. A. L. Melander at the request of Chairman E. M. Ehrhorn, 
who was unable to be present. Professor Melander was then elected 
chairman for the meetings and Dr. Edwin C. VanDyke as secretary 
in the absence of E. 0. Essig. 
A brief business session followed in the morning and in the afternoon 
and on the following day the regular papers were presented and dis¬ 
cussed. Officers were elected on the last day of the session. 
Although the number of members present was small there were many 
other interested entomologists present and the meetings were success¬ 
ful in every respect. The meetings afforded an opportunity to take up 
at first hand many of the very interesting problems of the great North¬ 
west and will materially strengthen the Association there.
