Extract

In August, 1953, the proprietor of an earthworm-propagating establishment in Vancouver, British Columbia, reported that her propagating boxes were infested with small, dark-brown beetles. Specimens of the beetles were identified by Professor M. H. Hatch, University of Washington, as of Quedius (Microsaurus) mesomelinus (Marsh.), Coleoptera, Staphylinidae.
