A Host Fruit of the Mediterranean Fruit Fly. 



Fig. 1. — A large winged kamanitree (Terminalia catappa) with a 6-foot man standing be- 

 neath for comparison. The fruits of this species are badly infested and, because they 

 ripen and fall in large or small numbers during the entire year, greatly interfere with 

 successful clean-culture work. Fig. 2. — The nuts are from 2 to 2.5 inches long; the 

 fruit-fly larvse feed only on the thin pulp covering the nut. (Original.)
