During this time beetles are ac- tive, looking for favorable woods on which to lay their eggs. During the rest of the year, however, certain species of these insects are relatively inactive and only a very few or no adult beetles are present. The bark beetles and ambrosia beetles are active throughout nearly the entire period within the months specified although their numbers vary a great deal within the season of ac- tivity. Insects of both the bark-beetle and ambrosia-beetle types mature very rapidly and can develop from the egg to the adult stage in from foui- to six weeks. They may have as many as three and often five generations a j^ear in certain parts of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Craighead, Frank C.
