Dear All,                                Aug 27, 2015
    Does anyone know offhand how common the Japanese Beetle (Popillia =
japonica) is in NS ? I found one yesterday in a flower garden =
(Kentville) the first I had seen since I started collecting beetles in =
1960 [ and in most habitats except flower gadens].
    A checklist of NS beetles, prepared by Chris Majka and dated Nov, =
2003 shows it to have been collected in only two counties, Yarmouth and =
Halifax, but this may simply reflect the tendency to not collect common =
things.=20

Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
