Early in May of the present year (1897) the Pasadena Science Club sent three of its members on a month's general collecting trip to certain of the Santa Barbara islands lying off the coast of Southern California. While none of the members of the expedition were, strictly speaking, entomologists, a considerable experience in collecting, combined with some preliminary instruction, enabled them to devote intelligently a portion of their time to the collection of insects, more especially of the Coleoptera.
