PLUM CURCULIO ( Conotrachelus nenuphar Host.) 
?. R. Lowry (June 25): On June 14 an average of from 8 to 
10 beetles were jarred from smell peach trees at Wilton. 
M. P. Zappe (June 22): There are about the usual number of 
adults. The apple crop is loss than usual, therefor - te cur- 
culio appears to be doing more damage over the Sta* = . 
C. R. Crosby and assistants (June): The pi - -' - 
to be more abundant than usual this year; in fact, in the lower 
part of the Hudson River Valley the growers believe that it 
is more abundant than it has ever been

H. L. Dozier (June 13): The curculio infestation appears to 
be the heaviest since 1921. Large numbers of bh rid 
Anaphoidea c onotracheli Girault are now being reared from 
eggs of the curculio at Camden. 
R. "'.*. Leiby (June 19): Ripening peaches and early midsea- 
son varieties show heavier infestation by far than usu&l. In- 
dications are for heavy losses by the curculio in late vari- 
eties. The peak of the first-brood adult emergence was June 
10 in our commercial sandhill peach section. 
0. I. Snapp (June 20): Second-generation larvae h 
started to appear in the Port Valley section. The infestat ion 
is heavy where curculio control measures have not been proper- 
ly enforced. 
S. C. Chandler (June): The orchards in southern Illinois 
show a lighter -: nf ..station than last season. A cold, rainy 
spring has prevented somo feeding. Jarring in sprayed and 
unsprayed orchards showed a gradual increase in numbers occur- 
ing on peach up to June 1, the peak. Since then there has 
been a considerable falling off until the present time, .June 14, 
R. H. Pettit (June 22): The plum evrculio is very abundant. 
L. Haseman (June): This insect emerged late. Larvae are 
one-half grown and a few full fed. It is now moderately abund- 
ant and causing severe damage.
