  although 
  not 
  living 
  on 
  cotton, 
  but 
  on 
  leaves 
  of 
  willows 
  

   and 
  poplars, 
  finds 
  its 
  way 
  on 
  to 
  cotton 
  and 
  sucks 
  the 
  leaves, 
  causing 
  

   small 
  pale 
  spots. 
  This 
  was 
  observed 
  in 
  the 
  Starvation 
  Desert 
  at 
  the 
  

   beginning 
  of 
  August. 
  

  

  In 
  the 
  middle 
  of 
  July, 
  a 
  peculiar 
  injury 
  to 
  cotton 
  was 
  noticed 
  near 
  

   Andijan, 
  consisting 
  of 
  numerous 
  light 
  irregular 
  spots, 
  concentrated 
  

   chiefly 
  near 
  the 
  tips 
  of 
  the 
  leaves. 
  This 
  injury 
  was 
  caused 
  by 
  Chlorita 
  

   bipundata, 
  which 
  was 
  also 
  found 
  on 
  small-leaved 
  elms. 
  With 
  it 
  

   occurred 
  Agallia 
  simiata, 
  M. 
  Rey, 
  which 
  usually 
  sucked 
  the 
  stalks 
  and 
  

   petioles 
  of 
  cotton, 
  without 
  however 
  causing 
  noticeable 
  damage. 
  Both 
  

   species 
  produce 
  two 
  generations 
  during 
  the 
  summer. 
  

  

  During 
  July 
  and 
  August, 
  the 
  maggots 
  of 
  a 
  fly, 
  Agromyza 
  fJaveloa^ 
  

   Fall., 
  were 
  observed 
  mining 
  the 
  leaves 
  of 
  cotton 
  near 
  Andijan 
  and 
  

   Akobelev 
  ; 
  the 
  imago 
  appeared 
  in 
  the 
  middle 
  of 
  August. 
  

  

  Single 
  examples

  Chloridea

   were

  on 
  cotton.

  The 
  author, 
  in 
  a 
  popular 
  form, 
  describes 
  the 
  imago 
  and 
  larvae 
  of 
  

   Euxoa 
  segetum, 
  figuring 
  both 
  stages, 
  and 
  giving 
  some 
  general 
  infor- 
  

   mation 
  as 
  to 
  its 
  life-history 
  and 
  the 
  injuries 
  it 
  does 
  to 
  crops. 
  In 
  the 
  

   government 
  of 
  Voronezh, 
  l^ere 
  are 
  two 
  generations, 
  at 
  the 
  beginning 
  

   of 
  summer 
  and 
  in 
  autumn. 
  The 
  larvae 
  of 
  the 
  first 
  generation 
  injure 
  

   " 
  bachza 
  " 
  plants, 
  beetroots 
  and 
  tobacco, 
  while 
  the 
  second 
  generation 
  

   damages 
  the 
  seedlings 
  of 
  winter-sown 
  grain. 
  The 
  author 
  suggests 
  as 
  

   remedies 
  : 
  Trenches 
  round 
  the 
  stripped 
  patches 
  of 
  the 
  fields, 
  which 
  

   may 
  be 
  made 
  with 
  a 
  plough 
  ; 
  poisoning 
  the 
  larvae 
  by 
  spraying 
  with 
  

   Paris 
  green 
  or 
  by 
  means 
  of 
  baits 
  consisting 
  of 
  poisoned 
  leaves 
  of 
  

   cabbage, 
  beet, 
  etc. 
  ; 
  ramming 
  the 
  spots 
  seriously 
  injured, 
  with 
  heavy 
  

   wooden 
  rollers 
  ; 
  ploughing 
  deep 
  in

  and 
  early 
  in

   collecting

  ; 
  destroying

   the

  oviposit

  which 
  form 
  the 
  principal 
  food 
  of 
  the 
  young 
  

   larvae 
  before 
  the 
  grain 
  begins 
  to

  in 
  

   troughs 
  with
