Abstract

Approximately 1400 acres are now under quarantine for the Asiatic beetle, Anomala orientalis Waterhouse, in New Haven, Conn. Altogether 2402 beetles were found during the summer scouting season, and 4576 diggings were made in the spring and fall. The heavy infestation is concentrated in 300 acres, and the larvae injure the lawns severely. Carbon disulphide emulsion was used successfully in controlling them, and during the past year 100 acres were treated.
