Extract

Shortly after the publication of my paper on this species, (Can. Ent., Vol. LXXXV, No. 1) I received a letter from Mr. R. W. Smith, of the Belleville Laboratory, giving some of the results obtained in a study of leucoptera in the parsnip webworm, Depressaria heracleana L., in 1926. In this study, writes Mr. Smith, “first-stage larvae were found in fifth and sixth instar hosts. Their most frequent location was in the musculature of the rectal region of the hind gut”.
