Extract

The pine bud moth, Exoteleia dodecella L., is a serious pest of pine throughout much of Europe. In North America, its presence was first reported in 1928 in nurseries at Fonthill and Ridgeville in the Niagara Peninsula (Annual Report, Minister of Agriculture, Ottawa, Canada, 1929). The occurrence and spread of this species was followed closely until 1933 (Sheppard, 1930; Ross and Caesar, 1931; Caesar and Ross, 1932, and Twinn, 1933), in connection with the European pine shoot moth eradication program which was then in progress.
