  REPORT 
  OF 
  NEW 
  JERSEY 
  STATE 
  MUSEUM. 
  

  

  list 
  I 
  have 
  in 
  general 
  followed 
  the 
  excellent 
  catalogue 
  prepared 
  by 
  Mrs. 
  

   M. 
  E. 
  Fernald, 
  and 
  published 
  as 
  a 
  special 
  bulletin 
  of 
  the 
  Hatch 
  Experi- 
  

   ment 
  Station 
  of 
  the 
  Massachusetts 
  Agricultural 
  College. 
  

  

  Dr. 
  W. 
  E. 
  Britton, 
  of 
  the 
  Connecticut 
  Station, 
  who 
  has 
  paid 
  much 
  

   attention 
  to 
  the 
  scale 
  insects 
  in 
  this 
  section 
  of 
  the 
  country, 
  and 
  who 
  has 
  

   especially 
  collected 
  the 
  species 
  found 
  in 
  greehouses 
  and 
  on 
  ornamental 
  

   plants, 
  has 
  been 
  good 
  enough 
  to 
  supply 
  me 
  with 
  a 
  series 
  of 
  notes 
  indi- 
  

   cating 
  those 
  species 
  which 
  from 
  his 
  experience 
  he 
  feels 
  certain 
  will 
  occur 
  

   in 
  New 
  Jersey. 
  Quite 
  a 
  number 
  of 
  these 
  species 
  are 
  confined 
  to 
  green- 
  

   house 
  plants 
  and 
  are 
  unable 
  to 
  maintain 
  themselves 
  outdoors, 
  hence, 
  

   strictly 
  speaking, 
  they 
  are 
  not 
  a 
  part 
  of 
  the 
  New 
  Jersey 
  fauna. 
  They 
  

   have 
  been 
  included, 
  however, 
  as 
  matter 
  of 
  information 
  and 
  to 
  call 
  atten- 
  

   tion 
  to 
  them.

  as 
  well 
  as 
  on 
  strawberry, 
  tomato 
  and 
  

   other 
  cultural 
  plants. 
  Not

  the 
  State, 
  

   usually 
  on 
  single 
  trees, 
  and 
  never 
  abundant 
  enough 
  to 
  be 
  harmful. 
  

   Easily 
  recognized 
  by 
  its 
  circular 
  form 
  and 
  golden 
  color.
