GUIDE TO THE GEOMETRIDAE OF CANADA (LEPIDOPTERA). I. SUBFAMILY STERRHINAE. by McGuffin, W. C. Mem. exit. Soc. Canada, no. 50: 67 pp., 102 figs. 1967. The first in a series of manuals planned to cover some 450 Canadian species of Geometridae includes diagnoses of all stages of the family and keys to subfamilies and to the 7 Canadian genera and 24 Canadian species of Sterrhinae. Line drawings illustrate adults, genitalia, and characters of the early stages; adults are shown in 62 small but clear color photographs. Ranges and known food plants are given. Aside from a few unsatisfactory photographs of early stages this is an admirable handbook.—P. F. Bellinger, San Fernando Valley State College, Northridge, Calif.
