PEA APHID ( Illinoia pi si Kalt. ) 
T. H. Paries (June 20): Peas being grown for canning factories 
are quite seriously attacked in Pickaway County. Predacious 
larvae of ladybugs are quite abundant. 
R. H. Petti t (June 17): The pea aphid is on the rampage in 
Michigan. It has already destroyed part of the crop in Tuscola, 
Saginaw, Bay, Midland, Gratiot, Kent, and Newaygo Counties and 
points north. Entomophthora is taking its toll of the lice.

A CABBAGE BUTTERFLY ( Pieris monus te L. ) 
H. T. Fernald (June 22): The migratory flight southward of 
the large cabbage butterfly which I noted in April and May showed 
no signs of appearance this year until about June 10 and is now 
in full progress along the Indian River as far as Melbourne. I 
have not been along the river north of Indian River City or south 
of Melbourne to see how much farther it goes. Fifty or more of 
the butterflies in sight at once, all working their way south, 
is an interesting sight.

The diamond-back cabbage moth was found in Gloucester, Camden,

Camden County have largely gone to pupation.
