ANNOUNCEMENTS RELATING TO WHITE-FRINGED BEETLE 
QUARANTINE (NO. 72) 
WHITE-FRINGED BEETLE QUARANTINE REGULATIONS REVISED 
[Press notice] 
May 12, 1942. 
The Department of Agriculture said today that the white-fringed beetle quar- 
antine and regulations have been revised, effective May 9, 1942. The regulated 
areas in the four quarantined States of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and Missis- 
sippi have been extended to include new sections in which the beetles have been 
found since the original quarantine was put into effect more than 3 years ago. 
The newly added sections are for the most part adjacent to the old infested areas, 
including the vicinities of Florala, Mobile, and Monroe ville, Ala., Pensacola^ 
Fla., New Orleans, La., and Gulf port and Laurel, Miss. 
Part of the area at Monroeville — some 84 square miles — has been released 
from quarantine, however, as repeated inspections indicate there are no beetles 
there now. Because several communities in the vicinity of Hattiesburg, Miss., 
have been found infested, the regulated areas in that State have been extended 
to include parts of the counties of Forrest, Covington, and Lamar, and a small 
area in Pearl River County not heretofore under regulation. Parts of Dallas and 
Escambia Counties, Ala., and of Iberia and Saint Tammany Parishes, La., are 
also brought within the regulated area for the first time. 
Among the commodities placed under regulation throughout the year (unless 
exempted by administrative instructions) are grass sod, peanut hay, lily bulbs, 
and nursery stock including greenhouse-grown annuals and perennials. All re- 
strictions are lifted on the movement of sweetpotatoes, peas, and beans. 
There is a new regulation as to the cleaning of railway cars, trucks, and other 
vehicles, and another permitting the shipping of live specimens of white-fringed 
beetles for scientific or experimental purposes as specifically authorized.
