  T. 
  trinotata 
  Say. 
  Throughout 
  the 
  State, 
  locally 
  common 
  and 
  sometimes 
  

   injurious. 
  The 
  larva 
  is 
  the 
  "potato 
  stalk 
  borer," 
  which 
  eats 
  out 
  the 
  

   stalk 
  of 
  the 
  plant 
  and 
  prevents 
  the 
  crop 
  from 
  maturing. 
  The 
  beetles 
  

   remain 
  in 
  the 
  stalks 
  all 
  winter, 
  and 
  if 
  these 
  stalks 
  are 
  raked 
  up 
  and 
  

   burned 
  when 
  the 
  crop 
  is 
  harvested 
  the 
  entire 
  brood 
  will 
  be 
  destroyed. 
  

   The 
  native 
  food 
  is 
  nettle.
