or Worcester Counties, On May 24 a heavy infestation of peach twigs was 
noted in many orchards about Smithsburg, Washington County, 
Virginia, H, W, Allen (June 8):' On May lb and 17 first-brood infestation 
of peach twigs was moderately heavy in many of the orchards in Albemarle 
County and heavy in Augusta County* 
Georgia, 0, I, Snapp (June 19): Some damage to terminals of twigs of non- 
bearing peach trees in and near Fort Valley, but of no importance in 
bearing orchards of this district, 
C, H. Alden (June 23): A light twig infestation by the oriental fruit 
moth was noticeable on 'June 19 at Cornelia, 
Mississippi, J, M, Langston (June 22): Peach twigs injured by larvae have 
recently been received from Greenwood, Leflore County, 
PEACH BORER ( Aegeri a exitiosa Say) 
New Jersey, R, C, Burdette, B. F, Driggers, and C. C, Hamilton (June 27): 
The peach borer is moderately abundant, 
Georgia, 0, I. Snapp (May 31): The first cocoon (pupa) of the season was 
collected from a peach tree in Fort Valley today. An empty cocoon 
with cast pupal skin, indicating that adults had already emerged, was 
also found today in the same tree. These are the earliest records for 
this latitude. The tree was infested with insectary-hatched larvae 
on July 20, 1933* (June 18): The first moth (female) of the season 
emerged today in Fort Valley, This is the earliest moth emergence date 
on record for this latitude under peach orchard conditions, 
PLUM CURCULIO ( Conotrachelus nenuphar Hbst,) 
Massachusetts, A, I, Bourne (June 25): The plum curculio is present in 
normal numbers, - 
Delaware, L, A, Stearns (June 23): First-brood grubs are in the soil. The 
infestation of the short peach crop is moderate-to-severe. 
New Jersey, R, C. Burdette, B, F. Driggers, and C, C, Hamilton (June 27): 
The plum curculio is moderately abundant, 
Maryland, E, N, Cory (June 21): The plum curculio is very abundant. Typi- 
cal killing of twigs on peach is noted, 
Georgia, 0, I, Snapp (May 28): The first pupation of the season took place 
today at Fort Valley, The cold rainy weather in May retarded the develop- 
ment of the curculio in the soil, and as a result it is doubtful whether 
there will be a second brood. Usually only one generation occurs in 
this latitude when pupation is as late as the last of May, Cool weather 
continues and will undoubtedly prolong the pupation period, (June b): 
The first transformation to adult beetles in soil cells was recorded 
today, (June 13^): The first new beetles of the season emerged from 
the soil today. This is 17 days later than the first emergence last year*
