68. Winslow Station (11.3 km [Mile Zero is located at Penticton]). “Winslow Station was named after R. M. Winslow of the provincial department of Agriculture who was primarily responsible for the development of the Dominion Experimental Farm.

95. Provancher (1871a: 142), wrote: “Un correspondant de St. Pie, ... dans le Journal d’Agriculture de St. Hyacinthe, ... mentionne l’ Hémérobe perle, mais cet insecte ne se trouve pas en Canada, pas même en Amérique, pensons-nous.” Garland (1982 [1984]: 176) cited this as St. Hyacinthe, in error.

96. Reported by Smith (1932: 599; as Meleoma species near emuncta). In the 1980's, the specimen could not be located (Garland 1985: 751); it has since been found and is here reported as one of a series of C. oculata collected in 1923 by Kenneth M. King at Saskatoon SK [CNC].

Chrysopa oculata has been found in all provinces and territories of Canada except Nunavut; and in Alaska. Canadian localities in literature for which no specimen has been seen, are: BC: Okanagan Landing (Gibson 1914, as Chrysopa assimilis); NL: St. John’s (Hagen 1861, as Chrysopa transmarina); NT: Fort Resolution 99 (Dutilly 1946, as Chrysopoda [sic] oculata); ON: Fonthill (Hagley 1979), London (Saunders 1875), St. Martin’s Falls, Albany River [Martin Falls] (Walker 1853, as Chrysopa latipennis and C. oculata; cited by Hagen 1861, also cited by Throne 1971); QC: Compton (Gosse 1840 [1971] 100, as Hemerobius perla), Lachine (Walker 1853, as Chrysopa chlorophana; Hagen 1861, as Chrysopa transmarina), and Sherbrooke (Banks 1903, as Chrysopa chlorophana). All specimens reported here are documented with data in Garland (1982, 2000), or as new records (above). Chrysopa oculata is multivoltine throughout its range in North America (Nechols et al. 1987). A study of geographic variability in physiological traits controlling dormancy in this species included study material from Grand Beach MB (Nechols et al., op. cit.); voucher specimens are deposited in the personal collection of M.J. & C.A. Tauber 101. Adults of C. oculata and other species in Canada emit an odour when disturbed (Provancher 1869), which is why Gosse’s comments (1840 [1971]) were tentatively attributed to this species (Garland 1982 [1984]: 178). Based on label data, adults have been taken at light, in a car, on car netting, and in Malaise trap; trapped on sticky boards; and found on or around roadside plants, unshaded low plants, a clearing, woodland trees and shrubs, dry roadside with Fragaria, mixed dry mesophytic woods, a field, a crop field, a wet interdune meadow, a peat bog, a cat-tail swamp, a pond, along a forest access road, on plants in a bog, and at sunset on foliage of poplar stools in a tree nursery; adults also have been associated with, swept, hand-picked, beaten, or aspirated from Acer negundo, Alder, Alfalfa, Artemisia absinthium, Asparagus, Asters, Caragana, Caragana arborescens, Chenopodium album, Cirsium arvense, Convolvulus, Convolvulus arvensis, Convolvulus sepium 102, Corn, Crepis tectorum, Epilobium, Euphorbia esula, Grass with Clover and Buttercups, Greasewood, Kochia, Larix laricina, Leafy Spurge, Melilotus officinalis, Oak, Oats, ‘orme’ [Elm], Peach, Picea glauca, Pinus contorta var. latifolia, Polygonum coccineum, Poplar, Red Clover (cultivar Baker), Rose, Rumex, Salix, Solidago, Sonchus arvensis, Taraxacum officinale, Tilia americana (dead), Tobacco, T[rembling] Aspen, Urtica gracilis, Thlaspi arvense, Wheat, White Pine, and White Spruce. An adult is labelled as preying on Ceratopogon [ Diptera]; others from Acyrthosiphon caraganae (Cholodkovsky) [ Hemiptera]. Cocoons have been found in sandy soil. Bionomic notes on this species in literature pertaining to Canada have been summarised (Garland 1985a).
