REPORT OP STATE ENTOMOLOGIST. 247 



Later, August 26, while attending burlaps two female pupae 

 were found and twelve new egg-clusters. Nine female moths 

 were seen laying their eggs. On August 27th two inspectors 

 visited this place and discovered twenty-one new egg-clusters 

 and also seven female pupse. The next day the same men 

 found twenty more egg-clusters, two female moths and three 

 female pupae. The willow was overhanging the street and was 

 considered such a menace to the spread of the pest that it was 

 cut down and the surrounding territory thoroughly cleaned up. 



On November i8th a bad infestation was found on some 

 willow trees on Jamaica Island where forty egg-clusters were 

 taken. This was the property of Dr. Van Renseller of Wash- 

 ington, D. C. 



November 22nd, 1906, an infestation consisting of three egg- 

 clusters was discovered in Kittery navy yard. They were found 

 on a tree just back of the hospital. These trees were cared for 

 during the summer. 



This fall on November 23, while scouting the yard, three new 

 infestations were found numbering fifty-one egg-clusters; one 

 south of the hospital; one near the naval construction building 

 and one on willows near Wyman's Point. 



These infestations together with Jamaica Island will keep one 

 man busy during the coming summer. 



SOUTH BERWICK. , 



In the spring scout one egg-cluster was found in the town. 

 It was on a shade tree on Academy street. Nothing showed up 

 here during the summer. The scout this fall gave two more 

 infestations, one on the Dover Road near Eliot and the other on 

 Branch Road near the Wells line. Both were on orchard trees 

 and were old egg-clusters, thus showing that they were laid by 

 single virgin moths. 



NORTH BERWICK. 



Nothing was found here in the spring but the fall scout gave 

 three infestations containing five egg-clusters. One was on the 

 South Berwick road and two on the Beach Ridge road. 



These are located near the main traveled road and may have 

 been brought from Wells or Eliot, or possibly from Kittery.
