APPLE-GRAIN APHIS ( RhQ-palosJ-phum prunifoliae Fitch) 
Nebraska M. H. Swenk (November 18, 1921). "In Baker County growing wheat 
was found rather heavily infested around the roots by the apple-grain 
aphis, but not a great amount of damage was done by it." 
FALSE , vr?S"'0JM ( Eleodes opaca Say) 
Nebraska M. H. Swenk (November 18, 1921). "In Garden County the wheat 
h'js nearly all been more or less damaged by the Great Plains 
frlse wireworm, and some fields were practically destroyed during 
the period covered by this report (October 15 to November 15)." 
Kansas J. 7. McColloch (March 25). "This insect is making its appearance 
in wheat fields of western Kansas where it did a large amount of 
damage last fall, due to the dry weather and the poor germination 
of the grain. In many parts of the State the wheat did not 
germinate last fall and has laid over winter in the ground. Re- 
cent rains have started the seed to germinate and apparently 
stimulated the false wireworm to greater -ctivity. *s this insect 
will be in the larva stage for about another month, we may antici- 
pate even greater injury."
