This paper provides an annotated systematic list of the endemic and potentially rare and endangered freshwater and terrestrial invertebrates in British Columbia. A total of 168 endemic species are listed, and 447 of the species that occur only in British Columbia in Canada are in-cluded. In addition, 203 of the more widely distributed spec ies are listed as potentially rare and endangered in the province, mostly on the basis of limited occurrence or restriction to obviously endangered habitats or ecosystems. The list is based on published information, and information provided by systematic experts. Museum collections were not examined, so additions and correction to the list are expected. Additional study and research is suggested.

A study of the ants collected in and around Victoria and on Thetis Island during the Autumn of 1987 and the Spring of 1988 is described. Twenty-four species were found, and the locations and habitats have been noted. Two of the Leptothorax species are believed to be new records for Canada and another remains unidentified. Some myrmecophiles were also recorded.

On April 28, 1917, whilst on a journey undertaken with a view to determining the distribution of the Pear Thrips, Taeniothrips inconsequens Uzel on Vancouver Island, the author had the good fortune to discover a curious, Tipulid larva quite unknown to him. The locality of the discovery was in the rural district of Westholme about 40 miles north of the town of Victoria. His attention was first drawn to the insect by his co-worker, Mr. E. W. White, Assistant Horticulturist of the Department of Agriculture, British Columbia, whose interest was first aroused by the feeding activities of the larva. In a rich woodland timbered by lofty cedars and spreading, largeleaved maples, there was growing in great luxuriance the false bugbane, Trautvetteria grandis , which affects damp and wellshaded habitats. It was on the leaves of this perennial, ranunculaceous herb that the larvae in question were feeding in large numbers, eating out large, irregular holes. The insect was successfully reared, and the adults submitted to Mr. Chas. P. Alexander, Department of Entomology, Cornell University, who identified the species as Cylindrotoma splendens , Doane, in a letter dated May 25, 1917. In reply to a letter of the author, in which the finding of the larvae was mentioned and their general appearance outlined, Mr. J. R. Malloch, of the Illinois State Laboratory of Natural History, Urbana, Illinois, under date of May 20, 1917, suggested with admirable foresight, that the species perhaps belonged to the tribe Cylindrotomini of the Tipulidae; but, as material had not then been forwarded to him, he could not naturally diagnose the species from a brief, written description. Later, however, he was able to corroborate Mr. Alexander’s determination from specimens sent from the writer’s collection.
1917年4月28日,在一次考察温哥华岛梨蓟马(Taeniothrips inconsequens Uzel)分布的旅途中,作者很幸运地发现了一种奇怪的、他完全不认识的提普利德(Tipulid)幼虫。这一发现的地点位于维多利亚镇以北约40英里的韦斯特霍尔姆农村地区。他的同事、不列颠哥伦比亚省农业部助理园艺师E. W. White先生首先引起了他对这种昆虫的注意,怀特先生的兴趣最初是被这种幼虫的取食活动引起的。在一片以高大的雪松和阔大的枫树为木材的茂密的树林里,生长着一种名叫大黄头蕨的植物,生长得非常茂盛,这种植物生长在潮湿和阴凉的地方。这些幼虫就是在这种多年生的毛茛属植物的叶子上大量进食,吃出不规则的大洞。这只昆虫被成功地饲养了起来,成虫顺从了查斯先生。P. Alexander,康奈尔大学昆虫学系,他在1917年5月25日的一封信中确定该物种为圆筒状植物。1917年5月20日,伊利诺斯州厄巴纳市伊利诺斯州自然历史实验室的J. R. Malloch先生在回信中提到了这种幼虫的发现,并概述了它们的大致外观。在回信中,他以令人惊叹的远见提出,这种物种可能属于提普里科圆筒虫族;但是,由于当时还没有材料寄给他,他无法根据简短的书面描述自然地诊断出这种物种。不过,后来他从这位作家的收藏中取出标本,证实了亚历山大先生的判断。
