PLUM CURCULIO (Co notra,chelus nenup har Ebst.) 
Oliver I, Snapp (September 18): There "/ill be practically no 
second brood of the plum curculio in Fort Valley, Ga ej this 
year. To date only one Sdult of the second generation has been 
reared, and only four larvae of the second brood have reached 
maturity. This shows a great variation in the life history 
of this insect in the South, as for some reason there are two 
full generations. Last year a third generation was reached 
in the insect ary. Climatic conditions are perhaps the factors 
which determine the size of the second brood here. 
S 3, Fracker (September 15): This year's abundant apple crop 
shows considerably less curculio injury than usual. 
GREEU PEACH APHID (i dyzus persicae Sulz.)
