Abstract
THE fourth International Congress of Entomology, held at Ithaca, New York, on Aug. 12–18, was much more largely attended than any of the previous congresses of entomology. More than 650 delegates and associates were registered, and 36 different countries were represented. Unlike the Zurich congress of 1925, France, Italy, and Belgium sent official delegates.. In all, more than one hundred persons came from foreign countries. The largest foreign delegations were those of England, France, Spain, Germany, and Russia. Very many Canadian entomologists were present, and Canada really joined with the United States in welcoming to North America the delegates from other parts of the world.
