seriously damaged late varieties of perches harvested after the middle of 
September, To the southward, in Indiana, Illinois, and Kentucky, infestation 
seamed to be much less serious, particularly in apple, and only moderate 
abundance is reported over the New England and South Atlantic regions. 
A green stink bug, Chlorochroa sayi Stal, is recorded from the State 
of Nebraska for the first time. It was found injuring potatoes in Kimball 
County. 
The imported cabbage worm is very seriously infesting cabbages in 
Illinois, Iowa, and Minnesota, and rather serious infestations by the 
cabbage webworm are reported from North Carolina, Alabama, and Mississippi. 
The cabbage looper is appearing in very considerable numbers over the 
same region and also northward into Virginia. 
The beet leaf hopper is abundant in northern Utah and considerable 
damage is resulting from the infestation. 
The fall webworm is occurring very abundantly throughout the eastern 
States from Vermont southward to Florida and Alabama. 
The birch leaf skeletonizer is occurring in a heavy outbreak in 
northern Maine and the upper and lower peninsulas of Michigan. 
The elm leaf beetle is so prevalent in Connecticut that unsprayed 
trees are brown in many parts of the St-te, and it is more prevalent at 
Raleigh, N. C. , than it has been during the past fifteen years. 
In the drought-affected States mosquitoes are unusually prevalent, 
perhaps because small streams, having been dried to puddles, afford ex- 
cellent breeding places. 
OUTSTANDING ENTOMOLOGICAL FEATURES III CANADA FOR AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER, 1930 
A correction: The outstanding entomological features in Canada, in 
the August 1 number of the Insect Pest Survey Bulletin, referred to July, 
1930 instead of August, 1930, as published on page 259. 
Reports during the past two months indicate a definite upward trend 
in grasshopper populations extending from southern Quebec, through Ontario 
and the Prairie Provinces, to British Columbia. With the exception of 
the Chilcotin ranges, British Columbia, however, grasshoppers, in general, 
were nowhere sufficiently numerous to cause serious crop damage. 
The pale western cutworm continued in severe outbreak form in 
Saskatchewan, but the outbreaks of the bertha armyworm which developed in 
1929, in Manitoba and Alberta, completely subsided, and there was no *.
