Research tation and use of nematocides will afford some Status of Soybean Cyst Nematode Peanuts in GEORGIA were infested by several pests common to this crop during the 1960 season"; Infestations of GRANULATE CUTWORM (Feltia subterranea) caused heavy defoliation of peanuts throughout the major peanut-producing covinties of the State and caused considerable concern,as 4-5 days were required after the appli- cation of controls to kill the pest. Light to moderate infestations of CORN EARWORM (Heliothis zea), FALL ARMYWORM (Laphygma frugiperda) and RED-NECKED PEANUTWORM (Stegasta basqueella) occurred on peanuts in Georgia during 1960. Infestations of LESSER CORNSTALK BORER (Elasmopalpus lignosellus) were also light to moderate on peanuts in the State; however, the infestation was gener- ally lighter than during 1959. Infestations of a BURROWING STINK BUG (Pangaeus bilineatus) were generally light on peanuts during the 1960 season. During 1959, this pest was heavy on Spanish peanuts in some areas of Georgia. Infesta- tions of undetermined species of THRIPS on peanuts in the State were very heavy, being heavier than in previous years. Peanuts in some other states were infested and damaged by some of these same pests, as well as a few ot
