188 PESTS OF GARDEN AND FIELD CROPS 
The Oblique Banded Leaf Roller (Archips rosaceana Harr.) 
Roses and other plants in greenhouses and occasionally fruit tree 
foliage sometimes are badly injured by active, green or reddish cater- 
pillars, three fourths of an inch long, which roll up the leaves, 
fasten them with silk, and feed within. The cater- 
pillar has an indistinct darker stripe down the 
middle of the back, the head is dark brown or black, 
the segments of the body are rather distinct. The 
is a brownish, smooth moth, and emerges from 
a pupa formed within the rolled leaves.

of the Oblique 
Banded Leaf = 
Roller. Original. Fig. 234.— The Bean Leaf-roller. Original. 
Hand picking is often the best means of control, though a prompt 
use of Paris green or arsenate of lead will check the pest, pro- 
vided the application is made before most of the larve have retired 
into rolled-up leaves. 
The Bean Leaf-roller 
(Eudamus proteus Linn.) 
Rather odd-appearing 
worms, 1} inches long 
when mature, with narrow 
neck and prominent head, 
eat the leaves of beans 
and sometimes other leg- 
umes. The ground color | 
of the larva is yellow, and Fig. 235.— Adult of the Bean Leaf-roller. 
its body is dotted with Original.
