Genera new to me; (Anthicidae (Antlike Flower Beetle)), perhaps <i> Sapintus</i> pusillus, a large Rove Beetle (likely <i>Platydracus</i>), a small Ground Beetle (probably <i>Apristus subsulcatus</i> (Dejean)) and a parallel-sided Rove Beetle. <br> <br> It was perhaps too early to locate <i>Naemia</i> as potential pollen sources (<i>S. sempervirens, Iva</i>) are not yet open.<br> <br> Hauled the first load of wood this afternoon and some sweat bees (Halictids) had a picnic on my arm when I got back.<br> <br> Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville<br> </body> </html>
