. Annual report. Entomological Society of Ontario; Insect pests; Insects. Fig. 31. half an inch in length (see Fig. 31, Agrilus rujicollis, the raspberry borer), the larva? of' which bore under the bark of stems and branches. I have also found both upon the willow and poplar Poecilonota cyanipes, Say, which is one of our rarest Buprestids. Among the Scarabasidae (the family to which the May-bugs belong) there are but few species to mention. The most common of these are Hoplia trifasciata, Say, and Serica sericea, 111., both about one-third of an inch long, the former nearly black, or brownish
