grand Is in the humid east coast of Mexico in Veracruz, where it was found 

 parasitizing boll weevils on a newly discovered host plant, Hampea sp. 

 Association of H. grandis with H^. h unter i (CraWi.ord) and with Urosigalphus 

 schwarzi Crawford is mentioned.

 to light sources and colors on traps. Environ. Entomol. 5: 565-571. 



The response of Anthonomus grandis Boheman to colored lights in the laboratory 

 confirmed that the 5-00-525-nm region of the spectrum has the greatest attrac- 

 tion. Poor response to red was noted in the laboratory and in the field. In 

 the field, the response of bJth early- and late-season boll weevils to the 

 traps increased as the intensity of reflected light was increased and also 

 when the pigment more closely approached the 500-525-nm region of the spectrum. 

 The greatest response was obtained with highly reflective daylight fluorescent 

 pigments that had this spectral characteristic.

 lines of cotton. Crop Sci. 19: 751. 



Two breeding lines of cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum L.), Pee Dee 695 (GP 42) 

 and Pee Dee 875 (GP 43) , were released by AR, SEA, USDA and the South Carolina 

 Agricultural Experiment Station in 1978. Both breeding lines possess resis- - 

 tence~to the bollworm ( Heliothis zea Boddie) and the tobacco budviorm (H. 

 virescens Fab.). Pee Dee 695, a frego bract line, is also resistant to the 

 boll weevil ( Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman) .

 line of cotton. Crop Sci. 19: 752-753. 



Pee Dee 6520 has given above-average performances in tests where yields are 

 influenced by injury from boll weevil ( Anthonomus grandis grandis Boheman);
