Extract

Mr. Hy. Edwards, on p. 12 of vol. xx,. of the Can. Ent., records three species of moths as additions to our fauna—two of them Sphingidœ, viz., Pseudosphinx tetrio and Philampelus typhon. Mr. Edwards is undoubtedly correct in the record of localities, and in calling attention to their capture within our faunal limits; but, with all due respect, I do not think that these species should be added to our faunal list. Erebus odora has been found in Canada, yet it would be an absurdity to cite it as a Canadian insect.
