In Tables 2, 3 and 4, it is shown that sparganothis fruit worm, cranberry fruitworm and fruit tree leafroUer are not able to survive well under condi- tions of low, dissolved oxygen content in the water. Table 5 presents additional data from widely separated commercial bogs to show that only a very small percentage of the fragile, tiny, first instar lar- vae of sparganothis larvae are able to survive under floodwater in their flimsy cocoons (hiber- nacula). In this test, egg masses obtain- ed in the field and in insectary cages were kept in the labora- tory until they were about to hatch. They were then placed in petri dishes with a hardware cloth top from which the newly hatched larvae could escape when they hatched. The egg masses were later examined to determine precisely how many individual eggs had hatched. The survival of the larvae on the commercial bogs, as shown on Table 5, was very poor. It should be noted that on the commercial bogs, as in the box tests, the oxygen does not have Cranberry Computer Co. 33 White Oak Drive Plymouth, MA 02360 (617)747-3033 Have You Considered a Computer?
