support colorplates. E. J. Newcomer, editor of the News, asked for comments and suggestions in relation to the season's summary. (A questionnaire has since appeared in the News.) Fred Thorne, as program chairman, gave his thanks to Los Entomologos and the Museum Directors for providing a memorable meeting place.
During the remaining time P. A. Opler showed slides of some unusual gynando-morphs, aberrant forms, and examples of certain Lycaenidae and Riodinidae. Dr. J. W. Tilden also showed slides taken during his recent stay in Hawaii. The meeting then adjourned for lunch.
On Sunday afternoon no organized activities were scheduled.
Monday, June 21
Many of the members and their guests met for a bus trip to the Laguna Mountains in eastern San Diego County. East of El Cajon, the bus drove out of the overcast that plagued the meeting in San Diego. With warm, sunny conditions, collecting was good at all six localities visited in the Ml. Laguna-Cuyamaca area. Some species were in their peak flight, many common, and a few choice "rarities" were taken. Although most were what the resident collector would expect, it is certain that it would be considered a very successful day by the out-of-state collectors.
According to the registration list, 10 states were represented: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Kansas, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, Texas, and Washington. Members, guests, and speakers who attended included:
E. N. Agey, R. Albright, G. T. and Mrs. Austin, N. W. and Mrs. Baker, Andre and Mrs. Blanchard, R. W. Breedlove, J. A. Comstock, S. L. Ellis, T. C. Emmel, R. Fall, H. A. and Mrs. Freeman, R. S.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF ANNUAL MEETING The Seventeenth Annual Meeting of the Lepidopterists' Society will be held in OTTAWA, ONTARIO, from the evening of SUNDAY, MAY 29 to the morning of WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 1966.
The general theme of the program will be: LEPIDOPTERA AROUND THE WORLD.
We hope the program will be of interest to amateurs and professionals alike. Field trips will form a part of the program.
The period of the meetings coincides with the Ottawa Tulip Festival and with Memorial Day in the United States; it should be an excellent time to collect some interesting local butterflies and moths, including some subarctic intrusions.
Those wishing to participate in the program or requiring further information should contact:
Dr. D. F. Hardwick, Entomology Research Institute, K. W. Ncatby Building, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Papers to be delivered at the meetings should be received in Ottawa not later than March 1, 1966.
Further announcements concerning the program will appear in the News at a later date.
