in fields lightly infested with tarnished plant hugs chlordane, 1 
pound per 100 gallons per acre, increased the yield of ladino clover seed 
14 percent and DDT spray, 1 pound per acre, increased the yield 22 per- 
cent. — Medler and Chamberlin Q20, 321 ). 
In tests in Indiana in 1948 chlordane completely controlled the in- 
sects (tarnished plant hug and stink hug) causing catfacing of peaches. 
Sod areas around the orchard were sprayed and it was found to kill re- 
markahly well for a period of two weeks or longer. — Marshall ( 315 . 3l6 ). 
Same as for Lvgus elisu s. — Russell ( 401 ) 
Lygus, spp. 
Chlordane showed some promise against Lygus hugs on alfalfa and 
sugar "beets. — Bishopp (32) . 
Amhlytylus nastus (Kirschbaum) 
Miris dolahratus (L . ) , the meadow plant hug 
A 5-percent chlordane killed 96 percent of the former and 88 percent 
of the latter on Kentucky hluegrass. — Ky. Agr . Expt. Sta. ( 258 ). 
Psallus seriatus (Reut.), the cotton fleahopper 
In lahoratory and cage tests at Waco, Texas during 1946 5-percent 
chlordane was very toxic to cotton fleahopper adults and nymphs, hut a 
1-percent dust was much less effective than the same concentration of DDT 
or toxaphene. Neither of these concentrations was as effective as a dust 
formulation of henzene hexachloride containing 0.575 percent of the gamma 
isomer. — Ivy and Ewing ( 237 ) . 
In Texas during 1947 a 5-percent chlordane dust, applied once at the 
rate of 12 pounds per acre, was effective (83.4 percent control). — 
Gaines and Dean ( l64 ) . 
Pentatomidae 
Euschistus servus (Say) 
Same as for N ezara viridula . — Riherd ( 391 ) . 
Euschistus spp. 
In tests to control the catfacing of peaches in Virginia in 1948 
chlordane spray, containing 2.5 pounds of 40-percent wettahle powder 
per 100 gallons of water, gave some control, hut was inferior to DDT 
and sahadilla. — Woodside (.£L2) . 
Murgantia histrionica (Hahn), the harlequin bug 
Lahoratory tests on adult hugs indicated that the median lethal dose
