This moth is common in the Valley of the Mississippi and in Ontario, but does not appear to be very common in the Hastern States, and is un- known in the extreme south- ern portions of our re«4;ion. It is very common in western Pennsylvania. Professor C. V. Riley de- scribes its habits as follows: "It is one of those insects which is hardly noticed while it is carrying on its most de- structive work; for it is most voracious durini,^ the leafy months of Mav and June, and is then more or less hid- den by the foliage of the tree, which it so etTectually helps to denude. But ihc nakedness of winter, though it does not reveal the surreptiliotis ' \% bare and renders conspicuous its little house, and these ! these larval cases âwhether closely attached in . !;:s?, c* twigs as in Figure 228, b, or hidden in a few searc^; w leaves as at Figure 22c^, are unerring tokens of past injury lo the tree, and symbols of increased injury in the future, ui moved. The bunches of leaves anchored to the tree hy strong silken cables and breasting dellanll'. v winters \^ indeed, significant insignia upon wlutii ;.s written in ' if not in wordsâ'result of careless culture and â neglect.' There is but one brood a year, and the larva, about 409.
