considerably more damage to cotton squares at this time than any 
other insect in Oklahoma. Parasites are beginning to show up, 
however, and we hope that the natural control will be complete

plants in early season, occurring in numbers and showing somewhat 
the habits of armyworms.

FS Sherman (July 5) " Each year, and especially since the boll 
weevil invaded the State, this species is sent with reports of its 
damage to young cotton plants; it severs young stems and leaf- 
pedicels, but the injury is usually temporary. The insect is often 
mistaken for the boll weevil of course,,
