    Val George sends a picture of a pug moth from his Oak Bay house, March 22.  It might be Eupithecia annulata, but, like so many of these pugs, we can’t be quite sure, so let’s label it just Eupithecia sp.

   Rosemary Jorna sends a picture of a tiny ladybird beetle from the trunk of a maple tree near Kemp Lake.  It is  Psyllobora borealis  –  a new creature for this site.
