Noticing the remarks of Mr. W. G. Wright in the Feburary number of the Canadian Entomologist respecting V. Californica, I considered it would be of interest to give particulars of its capture at Victoria B. C. During 1890 it was scarce in this vicinity, though probably common enough on higher elevations. The specimens taken by me were captured at Beacon Hill, amongst or near the fir trees that compose the wooded part of the Park, and situate some sixty feet above the sea level.
