Extract

Mr. A. H. Ritchie, Government Entomologist of Jamaica, has recently sent home specimens of a large black weevil which he has found doing serious damage to pine-apples in that island. The insect proves to be a new species of Metamasius, of the sub-family Calandrinae, and I have much pleasure in naming it after its discoverer.
