Sideima haracana Kft., was reared from larvae boring in the upper parts of the stalks of Helianthus annuus. Our examples emerged in August, 1944. They were collected from sunflowers growing wild in fields near Van Nuys, Calif., and were taken at the same time that considerable numbers of the larvae of Stibadi- um spumosum were secured. J. F. Gates Clarke recorded the habits and life history of this species in 1934° from examples collected at Pullman, Wash. Along with the last named species a number of larvae of Sideima helianthana Riley were reared from borings in the stalks. These emerged on various dates in September, 1944. Other species reported as feeding on or in sunflower, but not as yet recorded for California are: Homoeosoma electellum Hist., in flower heads; Eucosma rorana Kft., boring in roots; and 5". cinerodorsana Heinr., boring in stalks. 1.
