Extract
The boxelder twig borer, Proteoteras willingana (Kearfott) was described in 1904 from specimens reared by T. N. Willing, Regina, Assiniboia (now Saskatchewan), Canada, and temporarily placed in the genus Proteopteryx (Kearfott, 1904, 1905). In 1923 it was transferred to the genus Proteoteras (Heinrich, 1923). Early knowledge of life history and habits of this species is very fragmentary (de Gryse, 1924, 1925; Swaine, 1916, 1917; Washburn, 1910).
