Extract

The following article contains two records apparently new to Vancouver Island, notes concerning two species rare in collections from the island and remarks concerning the status of Leptura soror LeConte.

Holopleura murginata LeC. A single male, taken on Mount Tzouhalem, Duncan, Vancouver Island, on May 21, 1947, by R. L. Fiddick apparently provides the first record for the island. This interesting species was called to my attention by G. Stace Smith of Creston to whom it was originally sent for determination. The only other British Columbia record, published by H. B. Leech (1945) is based on a single specimen beaten from a Douglas fir at Arrowhead, B.C. by G. Slade on May 10, 1945.
