120 THE CANADIAN ENTOMOLOGIST 



berries, raspberries, Cotoneaster, Corylus, Boxwood, Thiuya, 

 Viburnum, locust. It has been found recently in New Jersey on 

 boxwood in nurseries at Rutherford, Elizabeth and Riverton, 

 evidently having been imported from Holland on such stock within 

 the last few years inasmuch as it is sometimes reported by inspectors 

 examining imported boxwoods. 



It has been correctly recorded from New Jersey in "Ento- 

 mological News," vol. XXVI, p. 102, where it appears as Lecanium 

 corni Bouche, although nothing is said there concerning its syno- 

 nyms, and the only host mentioned is boxwood. In Smith's list 

 it appears as follows under the genus Eulecanium: 



E. armeniacum Craw. The apricot scale; found also on plum, 

 pear, cherry, peach, etc., but not abundantly enough to be in- 

 jurious. 



E. canadense Ckll. Mass. to Ohio on elm, maple, oak, hickory 

 md peach, and should be found in New Jersey. 



E. cerasifex Fitch. New York plum scale. On cherry, plum, 

 peach, apple, pear, etc.; not common nor injurious in New Jersey. 

 E. corylifex Fitch. On Corylus and Viburnum. 

 E. cynoshati Fitch. On gooseberry and Gleditschia. 

 E. fitchii Sign. Found in N. Y. on raspberry and blackberry. 

 E. juglandifex Fitch. The butternut scale. 

 E. kingii Ckll. On sassafras and Vaccinium corymbosum in 

 Mass. and Conn. 



E. lintneri Ckll. & Benn. On sassafras in N. Y. and probably 

 in N.J. 



E. pyri Schr. On pear, apple, hickory and white thorn. 

 E. ribis Fitch. The "currant scale." Found on currant, 

 gooseberry, mulberry, etc. 



While all of the above are not strictly New Jersey records, 

 it is evident that the species occurs on various hosts within the 

 State, but never in sufBcient numbers to be injurious. This con- 

 dition of affairs, true at a time when the list was prepared, still holds 

 good. If anything, this particular scale can be said to be rather 

 rare in New Jersey at the present, and at no time was it ever 

 abundant enough to require the application of remedial measures.
