Extract

The geometrid larvae feeding on spruce form a large and varied group. In collections taken from all parts of Canada where spruce is found, the Forest Insect Survey has identified 31 species (Brown, 1). To the best of the author's knowledge, there are descriptions for only 16 of these species. In this and the two following papers, seven more are described and two are redescribed.
