 from which it issues to eat the surrounding foliage. Very common onr 

 black locust trees in Ohio.

Family Tineidae. 



Gracillaria lepedezaefoUella Clem. Larva mining the leaves of the 

 black locust, making a pale yellow blotch mine on the upper surface. The 

 mine is placed over the mid rib, and lateral galleries extend out on either 

 side. The flattened pale green larva pupates in the mine, and later falls- 

 to the ground, where it finally emerges as a golden brown moth the fol- 

 lowing June. These mines were very numerous on black locust leaves 

 near Perry, Ohio, during August and September, 1905. On many leaves- 

 every leaflet bore from one to five mines. No satisfactory remedy can be 

 suggested for this insect.
