Abstract

Species and subspecies described as new are Chrysomelinae: Cbrysomela sonorae from Arizona and Mexico; Curculionidae: Anthonomus (Coccotorus) pumilae pumilae from Ontario, A. (C.) pumilae major from Manitoba, Conotrachelus corni from Ontario and Manitoba, and Hexarthrum thujae from British Columbia. Diorymerelhis Champion 1908 is synonymized with Stethobaris LeConte 1876; the genus evidently depends on orchids. A key to all species of Coccotorus is offered. The occurrence of local races in Chrysolina subsulcata (Mann.) and C. magniceps (J. Shalb.) is noted.
