of a 10-percent chlordane dust was 5*1 pounds per acre. Chlordane and 
toxaphene were more toxic than DDT or sabadilla as 10-percent dusts. In 
cage" tests a 10-percent chlordane dust caused 3^.5 percent mortality 5 
days after application. — Gaines and Dean ( l65 ). 
Nezara vlrldula (L.), the southern green stinkbug, the pumpkin bug 
In laboratory and cage tests at Waco, Texas chlordane gave promising 
results. A 20-percent chlordane dust was less effective than toxaphene 
against adults and nymphs. — Ivy and Ewing ( 237 ). 
Five percent chlordane dust was effective. — Kelsheimer ( 2^3 . 252 ) . 
A dust containing 10 percent toxaphene - 5 percent chlordane - 35 
percent pyrophyllite was highly effective in controlling these stinkbugs 
on soring planted cowpeas on the Texas Gulf coast. — Eiherd (,^2i) • 
Unidentified pentatomidae 
Chlordane gave no control of catfacing in Illinois peach orchards in 
19^-7 when applied five or more times beginning with the shuck split stage. 
It was used at the rate of 1 pint of 6l percent concentrated emulsion 
per 100 gallons of water. — Chandler (72) . 
Tingidae 
Cprythucha cydpniae (Fitch), the hawthorn lace bug 
Chlordane spray made by diluting a mixture of 1 part of chlordane, 
1 part Triton X-100, and 2 parts xylene with water to a content of 0.12 
percent chlordane was effective in controlling this lace bug on Pyracantha 
shrubs. A DDT spray of the same strength was slightly more effective. — 
Walton (U83). 
COLEOPTZRA 
Carabidae 
Agpnoderus comma (F.) 
A 5-percent chlordane dust, applied lightly to the soil surface, 
killed 100 percent of these beetles in the soil after 120 hours. Corn 
seec treated with chlordane dust at the rate of 2 to 3 ounces per bushel 
was completely protected against beetle attack. — Johnson ( 2-^-3 ) .
