   <\/strong>Bill sends a photograph of a species of snout<\/strong> from his Summit Hill garage, February 28.  Jeremy writes: “I can’t tell for certain what species it is, though I think it is most likely Hypena <\/em><\/strong>decorata<\/em><\/strong>”.<\/p>\n

   On February 17 we posted a picture of a geometrid caterpillar photographed by Scott Gilmore at Upper Lantzville on Ceanothus thyrsiflorus<\/em>.   We speculated that it might be a species of Drepanulatrix<\/strong><\/em>.  Scott writes that these caterpillars have now pupated, and we wait with excitement to see what they turn out to be.  The green pupa has only just been formed.  In a day or two it will be as hard and brown as the others.<\/p>\n
