apple aphid ( Aphis pomi DeG.) is practically absent in the western 
apple orchards in Crawford County. 
Missouri. L. Hasenan (May 23): Sone rosy aphid present in southwestern 
Missouri and in the west-central portion hut generally aphids are 
less abundant than usual. 
Colorado. G. M. List (May 22): The rosy apple aphid is somewhat more 
numerous than usual in Delta and Mesa Counties and was reported for the 
first time from Montezuma County. 
LEAEHOPPERS (Cicadellidae) 
Connecticut. P. Carman (May 19): It was estimated that from one-fourth 
to one-half of the white apple leafhopper ( Typhlocyba pomaria Mc.) 
had emerged at the time of calyx spray. 
Pennsylvania. H. E. Hodgkiss (May 27): T. po met aria hatching on May 13 in 
Berks County. Infestation heavy in some orchards. 
Missouri. L. Hasenan (May 23): There was a heavy overwintering crop of the 
red-spotted ( Erythroneura maculata Gill.) and red-striped (E. ohliqua Say) 
leafhoppers, hut in the last 2 weeks they have been less noticeable on 
foliage, owing to spread and possibly dying following egg laying. 
Eirst nymphs of these seemingly beginning to show up. The white apple 
leafhopper, which passes the winter in the egg stage, is fairly abundant 
and the first-brood mating occurred from May 15-20 in central Missouri. 
APPLE REDBUGS (Miridae) 
New York. N. Y. State Coll. Agr. News Letter (May): Red bugs have injured 
the terminal growth in several orchards in the lower Hudson River Valley. 
Reports from Orleans and Wayne Counties also indicate injury. 
New Jersey. T. L. Guyton (May 21): Apple redbug ( Lygidea mendax Reut.) 
are rather numerous in part of an apple orchard at Lebanon. 
Pennsylvania. H. E. Hodgkiss (May 27): Both species, L. mendax and 
Heterocordylus malinus Reut., are abundant through the State. They 
were hatching on May 5 and 6. 
SAN JOSE SCALE ( Aspidiotus perniciosus Comst.) 
Georgia. 0. I. Snapp (May 20): Most of the San Jose scales are dead in 
peach orchards sprayed last winter for the control of this insect 
at Port Valley. In these orchards, crawlers and recently set-up young 
are rather scarce. 
Tennessee. G. M. Bentley (May): In many of our peach and apple orchards 
of western Tennessee San Jose scale is showing up in appreciable 
numbers. 
Missouri. L. Haseman (May 23): San Jose scale is not breeding up heavily, 
'probably on account of severe winter mortality.
