Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a scientific report that gives detailed biological observations of insects in New York State in 1891. While many insects noted were not pests, the author places particular emphasis on a select number of destructive insects that impact orchards and fruit. These include the prevalent apple-tree tent caterpillar, the apple-tree aphis, various "bud moth" species, the pear-tree psylla, and the pear midge among others. The report also includes observations on the plum curculio and the rose bug, as well as detailed accounts and illustrations of the locust mite and an infestation of onion pests. The work provides an in-depth study of these insects' characteristics, habits, and life cycles, as well as effective remedies for controlling their populations and preventing crop damage. This book is a valuable resource for farmers, entomologists, and anyone interested in the study of insects.
