to never have been sufficiently numerous before to attract attention, 
l here are uwo broods m a season, the first brood of moths making 
their appearance and depositing their eggs in the folds of the young 
leaves just as they open; the second brood appearing the latter part 
ot July, depositing their eggs upon such leaves as had not been in¬ 
jured. 
Remedies .—The remedy suggested by Mr. Wier consists in looking 
over the trees for the rolled up leaves and destroying them before the 
first brood of worms change to moths, before the middle of July As 
the insect had not been injurious previous to 1870, and as the second 
brood of the next year did very little damage in Mr. Wier’s orchard 
we may suppose that climatic changes and insect parasites will usu¬ 
ally render other means of fighting them unnecessary. 
Spec Char. Moth .—Length .30 of an inch, average expanse of wings 
• • , ot an Antennas brown, annulated with whitish on each 
joint, most distinctly on the under side, first joint densely clothed 
with orange scales. Palpi orange, horizontal; the scales project 
around and beyond the end of trie penultimate joint so as to form a 
little cup in which the small ultimate joint is inserted. Maxillary 
palpi rudimental. Tegulas well developed, more than half as long as 
the thorax; head, thorax and fore wings bright orange. The orange 
scales which cover the wings are observed when carefully examined 
or seen through a lens, to be mixed with numerous whitish almost 
silvery scales, so arranged as to form about ten indistinct, transverse 
sinuous or wavy lines. Hind wings, abdomen and legs whitish with 
silken lustre. There is a little plume of divergent scales at the end 
ot the abdomen.—LeBaron. 
Tortrix Cinderella, Riley.—The Green Apple-leaf Tyer. 
The larva of this little gray moth may often be found, with sever¬ 
al other species, m company with the Leaf Skeletonizer, aiding in 
denuding young apple trees of their foliage. The caterpillar is of a 
uniform yellowish green color with the head and neck horny, and of a

shaped black mark on which are the eyelets, and another dusky spot 
at the base on the sides. _ “Like the preceding species it lives and 
undergoes its transformations within a leaf folded and fastened with 
silk. It may be known from the Skeletonizer by its wriggling away
