Extract

Late in 1934, Arthur Gibson, the Dominion Entomologist, received from Miss A. M. Heydweiller, of the Laboratory of Ornithology, Cornell University, a number of collections of external parasites taken from twenty species of birds at Churchhill, Man., during the summer of that year. These were passed to me by Mr. Gibson, and were found to consist of 27 collections of biting lice(Mallophaga), two of fleas (Siphonaptera) and two of mites (Acarina)
