Wisconsin S. B. Pr acker (August 25). "Damage is not as severe as in other 
white grub years,, Crows are reported as attacking the grubs 
in large numbers at Platteviile," 
ALFALFA AND CLOVER 
BLISTER BEETLE ( Epicr.u ta lsmni scats Fab. ) 
Nebraska Myron H. Swenk (August 15), "The striped blister beetle continued 
injury during latter July on alfalfa end potatoes, especially in 
Thayer and Adams Counties." 
CLOVER APHIS ( Anur aphis baker i Cowen) 
Idaho R. H. Smith (August 15). "This insect is less abundant than usual 
this year. Unusual rainfall during May and June probably prevented 
this post from becoming seriously destructive," 
CLOVER ROOT-BORER ( Hylastinus obscurus Llarsh. ) 
Oregon & m P. Rockwood (August 13). "Damage by this pest is more severe 
than for the past two years in many first-crop clover fields. Dry 
weather has retarded growth of clover roots and high temperatures 
have accelerated the development of root borers. Fields on poor- 
er soils most seriously .damaged," 
CLOVER SEED CRALCIS ( Bruchorfraeus funebris How. ) 
New York L. P. Wehrle (August 16), "Adults now present and fairly common 
about Ithaca," 
ALFALFA CATERPILLAR ( Surymus eurytherae Bdv. ) 
California H. G. Smith (August 20)* "Mr, Fred C. Biossius reports having 
the worst infestation of this pest that they have had in the 
past five years, the insects destroying about 25 per cent of 
the third and fourth cuttings," 
CLOVER SEED CATERPILLAR ( Enarmonia int erst inct ana Clem. ) 
New York L. P. Wehrle (August 16). "Second-brood moths have been on the 
wing for about 2 weeks and eggs are now being deposited. The 
insect is fairly abundant about Ithaca." 
CLOVER-SEED MIDGE ( Dasyneura leguminicola Lint. ) 
New York L. P. Wehrle (August 16). "Second-brood larvae are now beginning 
to appear. Auults in flight and ovipositing. Judging from the 
abundance this season this insect will probably do considerable 
damage. It is the most important clover seed pest in the vicini- 
ty of Ithaca." 
LESSER CLOVER-LEAF WEEVIL ( Phytonomus nigrirostris Fab. ) 
New York J. D. Detwiler (July 25). "This insect is very scarce about 
Ithaca this year, due probably to heavy parasitism early in the
