Insect collection expands Canadian National Collection
About 100000 insect specimens gathered in southern Texas by Canadian researchers join the Canadian National Collection. The effort, led by G B P Holland of the Entomology Research Institute, aims to identify any specimen for anyone and bolster global coverage. The collection now numbers around 3,000,000 specimens across 80000 species, with ongoing work from 22 specialists. The piece highlights North American focus, Arctic and sub Arctic outreach, and a case where mistaken identity of pests saved a jackpine stand.

Police horses sent to B W I
Canada exports horses for police use to the British West Indies. Superintendent W J Frisby of the Trinidad Police Force received 10 horses. Trinidad buys horses biannually. Two black horses went to the Commissioner of Police in Barbados. Dr F J Leslie of the Canada Agriculture Department notes these are not land breeds as hay and grain must be imported, making costs prohibitive.
