Extract

Studies on insect pests in cones of eastern larch, Larix laricina (Du Roi) K. Koch, have revealed adelgids living inside many of the cones. Mr. G. R. Underwood of the Forest Research Laboratory, Fredericton, has identified them as Adelges strobilobius (Kalt). This is a new feeding site record, for normally this insect feeds on larch needles.
