. Annual report of the Regents . REPORT OF STATE ENTOMOLOGIST, 1898 215 number of young were found underneath. Apparently the species isviviparous ia this latitude, as recorded of it farther south by Dr Florida all stages have been observed during the winter and it hiber-. Fig. 14 Young of lecanium tulipi^erae, much enlarged (original). nates as larvae at Washington, D. C, according to Dr Riley. The num-erous young on the branches and those still issuing would indicate thatthe larvae must hibernate in this stage. The only observed difference inOctober between those which had issued some time before and thoseemerging, was in the color. The older ones still retained the larval form,but they had turned black, were closely apphed to the bark and attachedby a slender thread. In this condition they were apparently ready forhibernation, since upon being disturbed there was no effort to move offas in the case of younger individuals. In this latitude there is probably but one annual generation, as thereis little chance that young would be produced earlier here than in Mich-igan. Prof. Cook states that they appear late in August. This insect produces a large amount of honey dew, which has anauseating odor. It has also been observed on clover by Prof. paras
