ROSY HISPA 

 Chalepus nervosa Panz. 



This small and variable leaf-feeding beetle was found 

 associated with C. d o r s a 1 i s Thunb. in an outbreak which re- 

 sulted in the defoliation of many locust trees at Syosset and 

 Jericho. Mr F. A. Bartlett of the Frost & Bartlett Company, 

 Stamford, Conn., reported this species as more abundant than the 

 larger and better known locust miner. For a fuller account of the 

 conditions, the reader is referred to a discussion of the preceding 

 species. 



Previous history. This small leaf beetle is quite variable in 

 appearance and has been described under several different names, 

 notably, i n a e q u a 1 i s Web. and rosea Web. It has been re- 

 corded by Chambers as mining the leaves of linden and E u p a- 

 torium ageratoides, while Messrs Hopkins and Cotton 

 • found it feeding commonly on locust in association with the locust 

 leaf miner. Arthur Gibson states that it is common in Canada on 

 basswood, though it has never caused noticeable injury. William 

 Beutenmueller reared this species from the foliage of asters and 

 Eupatorium. Harris states that these insects may be found on 

 the leaves of apple trees and very abundantly on those of the 

 shadbush and chokecherry during the latter part of May and
