1 The pathologist of the Federal Horticultural Board reports this was due to physiological 

 causes and not to a fungus. Apparently it is not injurious. 



The insects found on shipments during 1915-16 which were 

 sent to specialists for identification, and reports from whom 

 were not received in time to include in the last report, are also 

 now given. It should be stated that ten specimens from 

 1915-16 are still in the hands of specialists.
