RASPBERRY 
RASPBERRY FRUIT^ORM ( Byturus unicolor Say) 
F. L. Simanton (May 16): I wish to report a severe infestation 
of the raspberry "beetle in Berrien County. This beetle mil 
destroy thousands of cases of red raspberries in this County 
this year. 
RED-NECKED CANE BORER (Agrilus ruficollis Fab. ) 
L. Baseman (May 12): This year's crop of black raspberries is 
very severely damaged by last year's brood of borers. In some 
patches in central Missouri almost every cane is girdled by last 
year's brood. Small host parasites are abundant in galls, usually 
about four cocoons to each gall, species not determined. 
BLACKBERRY 
EUROPEAN FRUIT LECANIUM (Lecanium corni Bouche) 
C. R. Crosby and P. J. Chapman (February 9-13): Infested twigs 
received from Clarksville.

. ' GRAPE LEAFHOPFER ( Erythaoneura comes Say) 
F. Z. Hartzell (April 25): Appear to be very scarce at Fredonia. 
G. A. Runner (May 5): Adults of the overwintering brood of the 
three-banded grape leafhopper ( Erythroneura tricincta Fitch, var. 
cymbium McAtee) and other species injuring grape are not as abund- 
ant in most northern Ohio vineyard districts as in the spring of 
1924. This' decrease seems due to the comparatively light second 
brood of last season rather than to weather conditions during the 
winter. On the Lake Erie Islands where a heavy second brood 
occurred last year adults of the overwintering brood of several 
species of grape -leaf hoppers are numerous. (May 18); Damage 
to young shoots of grape by overwintering adults of E. vulnerata 
Fitch has been noted in a number of localities in Erie, Ottawa, 
and Lorain Counties. 
N. Turner (May): This insect is not present in the southwestern 
part of the State where the greater acreage of grapes is set. All 
indications show that the damage will probably be light this season. 
B... A. Harrigan. (April 20): This insect is reported as doing con- 
siderable damage this year. It is practically impossible to cite 
specific localities where injury has occurred as it has been so 
general and extensive.
