Extract

During field work at Bobcaygeon, Ont., in the summers of 1931 and 1932 I paid particular attention to the collecting and breeding of Haploptilia larvae and was successful in securing considerably over a dozen species. As very little has been published on this interesting group apart from Heinrich's excellent treatment in Forbes' Lepidoptera of New York State (1924, Mem. 68, Cornell Univ. Agr. Exp. Sta. pp. 202-217) it has occurred to me that the publication of my field notes, combined with a photographic figure of the characteristic larval case pertaining to each species, might be of value to students.
