FRUIT INSECTS 
APPLE 
GREEN AFPIS APHIS ( Aphis pomi DeG. ) 
New York C. R. Crosby and assistants. "Were plentiful by July 9th throughout 
Orleans County, also numerous early in the month in Clinton, Columbia, 
and Dutchess Counties." 
Ohio H. A. Gossard (June 23). "This insect threatened much damage a few 
weeks ago but syrphus flies, lady bugs and other natural enemies seem 
to have the upper hand at the present time and we do not anticipate 
serious damage anywhere. 
ROSY APPLE APHIS ( Anur aphis roseus Baker) 
New York C. R. Crosby and assistants,. "Quite abundant in Tompkins County late 
in June. Had mostly disappeared from the apples by July 9 in Orleans, 
Columbia, and Dutchess Counties." 
Ohio K. A. Gossard (June 23) . "Has been found quite abundant in a few 
orchards." 
WOOLLY APPLE APHIS ( Eriosoma laniaerum Hausm. ) 
Massachu- A. I. Bourne (July 20) . "Seems to be appearing in rather larger num- 
setts bers than is usually the case. Aside from this species, however, 
orchard plant-lice do not seem to be in particular evidence." 
New York C. R. Crosby and assistants. "More abundant than usual in Orleans 
and Columbia Counties. Slight infestations noted in Albany and 
Dutchess Counties. Common in neglected orchards in Nassau County." 
CODLING LDTH ( Carpocapsa pomonella L.J 
New York L. F. Strickland (July 9) . "Codling moth began ovipositing in 
Niagara County on June 24. Number of eggs constantly increased untjl 
July 1 when it had reached a higher point than at any time during the 
past five years. First codling moth larva observed on July 1. Con- 
siderable parasitism of codling moth eggs is taking place, but has not 
reached the percentage attained in 1920. First larva to leave the 
apple for pupation was observed July 6; however, but few larvae have 
reached the pink stage yet. The high peak of egg laying this season 
occurred on July 4th. 
C. R. Crosby and assistants report first-brood larvae hatching in many 
orchards in Orleans County on June 25, where the outbreak is not as 
abundant as last year. A normal outbreak in Seneca County and less 
numerous than usual in Dutchess, Columbia, and Nassau Counties. 
Virginia L. A. Stearns (July 7th) . "First brood worms of codling moth were leav- 
ing fruit in greatest numbers at the close of the month of June. First 
brood moths emerged June 24th. First section brood eggs laid June 24th 
and hatched June 29th. The application against the side worm will be 
timed about July 20th in Northern Virginia."
