A bug (Acanthocephala terminalis), a leaf-beetle (Calli- grapha scalar is), the fork-tailed katydid (Sctidderia furcata), the round- winged katydid (Amblycorypha uMeri Brun.) (40), and various other insects have been secured from shrubs, especially in slight open- ings. The black snake (22) (now rare) often rests on bushes in such forests. The black and yellow warblers and woodthrush nest on the shrubs.

The red oak supports the tree cricket {Oceanthus angustipennis), the stinkbug (Euschistus tristigimus), and the oak-leaf beetle {Xanthoma lo-nolata). Felt records several insects injurious to the red oak alone. From the white oak we have taken the katydid {Cyrtophillus perspicillatus), the larvae of sawflies (Fig. 227) and moths (Anisota senatoria), and various galls. Several weevils (Fig. 226a, b) occur on acorns, and the twig-.
