This aerial form is but the indication that there are other speci- mens, under the ground and feeding on the roots of the tree. It is the latter form that seriously affects the vitality of the tree. Upon the trunk the lice often cause a roughening of the bark, especially on the new growth around sears made by prun- ing. On the roots the lice cause hard and large knots, which eventu- ally produce a '"club-footed" con- dition of the roots. Such trees usually show their weakness by the fewer and dullei- colored leaves.
