Extract

Lake Timagami is the centre of one of the few extensive pine forests of the Canadian Zone which still remain. The virgin conditions of half a continent make their last stand against lumbering and settlement in such regions as this; a study of its fauna seems, therefore, imperative to Canadian biologists.

This collection, of which a list follows, was made in the summer of 1932 though unfortunately no collecting was done during the period from June 12 to July 21. No attempt at life-history notes is made, but macro- and micro habitat of the adult are recorded where possible. Localities are indicated by initials and described separately.
