Lozotcenia cerasiovorana is about one inch across the expanded 
wings, which are of an ochre-yellow color crossed by brownish 
markings. 
The larvae of these insects are gregarious and live on the leaves 
of the choke-cherry, their unsightly nests with the yellowish-brown 
shells of their chrysalides attached to the outside of the webs by their 
posterior ends may frequently be seen by the roadside. The moths 
often remain about or upon the nests several days after hatching. 
Lozotsenia cerasiovorana. Lozotaenia rosaceana. 
Lozotcenia rosaceana expands nearly an inch in a fine specimen. 
The fore wings are light brown crossed by bands of reddish-brown 
and the hind wings are light yellowish brown. The larva is said by 
Packard to bind together the leaves of the rose, apple and straw¬ 
berry with a few silken threads. The insect is double brooded, one 
appearing in June and another in August. 
Antitliesia pruniana. 
Antithesia pruniana is five-eighths of au inch in expanse, and the 
fore wings are marbled with black and lilac with white on the outer 
portion. The larva lives on the plum, and is a native of Europe as 
well as this country, doing considerable damage. 
Carpocapsa pomonella. 
Carpocapsa pomonella is the famous coddling moth, the larvae of 
which often does so much damage to the apple and pear crop, living 
in the interior of the fruits and causing them to drop to the ground 
when only partly grown. The moth is half an inch in expanse and 
is dark brown in color.
