This peculiar moth, which so perplexed the older Lepidopterists at classifying, is quite common in Florida on oaks, willows, shrubs, etc.
Full accounts of its habits, with accurate figures of the moth, caterpillar, etc., will be found in Prof. Riley's “First Mo. Report,” Saunders' “Insects Injurious to Fruits,” and Dr. Lintner's “First N. Y. Report.”
Indeed, these authors quite fully, accurately and succinctly describe the habits and parasites of this pest, and it would not now be noticed by me but for the fact of my breeding from it here in Florida a Chalcid parasite new to science and unnoticed by any of the above mentioned authors.
