From the scene of its first colonization in Queen's County, N. Y., the inse(5t migrated to the other truck- growing portions of Long Island. It soon reached southern Conne(5ticut, and has now extended its range northward through Massachusetts to New Hampshire. Southward it has traveled through New Jersey, where it was first noticed in 1868, to southern Virginia. At present it is well established in the principal asparagus- growing sections of New England, of New Jersey,.
