Rhode Island. A. E. Stens (April 29) ' We have noticed quite a number of 
tent caterpillar vnebs; apparently a high percentage of the eggs are 
hatching. 
Connecticut. P. Garman (April 20): Egg masses of the tent caterpillar much 
less abundant than during the last 3 or ^ years. Eggs have now hatched 
in some localities in New Haven County. 
E. P. Pelt (April 2U): Apple tent, caterpillars are present in 
small numbers locally in southwestern Connecticut. 
New York. R. E. Horsey (April 17): Hundreds of egg masses of the eastern 
tent caterpillar noted in territory south of Rochester and in the city 
nearby, where they were severe last year. Often a dozen or more egg 
masses are found on one tree. A large number were found on an orna- 
mental planting of crabapples that had the nests removed and the cater- 
pillars destroyed last spring and summer, wherever found. No defolia- 
tion was noticeable here last fall, but evidently enough caterpillars 
escaped to mature a number of moths. 
E. P. Pelt (April 2 ! l): Apple tent caterpillars are present in 
small numbers here and there in southeastern New York. 
M. Kisliuk (April 26): Larvae l/H inch long were found in the 
tents on wild cherry on April 25. at Alley Pond Park and Cunningham Park, 
Long Island. There v/ere -also some unhatched eggs. These insects appear 
to be less abundant than in 13yS. 
Pennsylvania. H. N. Worthley (April 2l): Egg masses first observed hatching 
on April 19 at State College, Centre County, in advance of the delayed 
dormant application to apple, 
J. 0. Pepper (April 26) : Egg clusters do not seem as abundant 
as last year in eastern Pennsylvania. Pirst hatching of eggs April 12. 
E. J. Udine (April 13): Eggs were hatching on April 13 at 
■Carlisle, Cumberland County. Last year in some locations eggs hatched 
on April 5- 
New Jersey. E. Kostal (April 22): Infestations on apple and wild cherry 
trees at Morganville, Monmouth County, are very moderate, as compared 
with last 3 years; first larvae noted on April 22, as compared with 
April k, in 193b. 
South Carolina. C. 0. Bare (April 12): An outbreak of the eastern tent 
caterpillar in Charleston Coiuity during the past 2 weeks attracts con- 
siderable attention. Nearly all wild cherry trees have been kept 
defoliated almost entirely, and the tents are frequently on wild plum. 
Georgia. 0. I. Snapp (March 29): The first colonies of the season were 
observed on wild cherry at Port Valley (central part of the State) on 
March 29. The infestation appears to be lighter than usual.
