Abstract
Adult moths of the lyonetiid, Leucoptera albella Cham., were obtained for the first time by the Ontario Forest Insect Survey during 1962. Identification was made by Dr. T. N. Freeman, Entomology Research Institute, Ottawa. No previous mention of this species occurs in Canadian literature, although Freeman indicates that it also occurs in British Columbia. The most recent published report on albella, is P. A. Glick's account of the life stages in the 14th Ann. Rept. Ariz. Comm. Agric. and Hort.: 68-73, 1923. In the same year W. T. M. Forbes, in his Lepidoptera of New York and Neighbouring States, Cornell Univ., Agric. Exp. Stn., Memoir 68, shows the known distribution as Kentucky, Colorado, and points west.
