THE SMALL APRICOT AND VINE MOTH. 

 (Batodes angustiorana. Haw.) 



This small Tortrix moth feeds on a great variety of trees in its 

 caterpillar stage, especially noticeable amongst fruit, as food plants, 

 are the apricot, vine and pear. The moth is fairly widely distributed, 

 and now and then does much harm to wall fruit, and also occurs on 

 the apricot in the open in sufficient numbers to damage the foliage. 

 It is also known as Ditula angustiorana.
