Baker(Los Banos, P. I.) In laying the foundations for work in economic entomology inthe Philippine Islands, a comprehensive study of the hymenop-terous parasites occurring in the Archipelago is of the highestimportance. A bare beginning in this work has been made. Ofthe marvelously rich fauna in these groups but very few andscattering species have been made known to science; many ofthese are to be credited to the activities of two Jesuit priests,Fathers Brown and Stanton, whose field work was practicallyconfined to the garden of the Manila Observatory. A few wereobtained by Semper, the German lepidopterologist, and by othertravelers. Only two species of the subfamily Rhogadinae have been de-scribed from the Philippines, but this subfamily is representedhere by many interesting and some peculiar genera and by a veryconsidera
