Extract

Although the leafhopper Colladonus clitellarius (Say) was found by Gilmer (1954) and Thornberry (1954) to be a vector of eastern X-disease virus of peach and cherry, little has previously been reported concerning the life-history or rearing of the insect. Gilmer (1954) stated that he did not know the host plant of the nymph and that collections of adults as early as June 3, 1953, and as late as October 22, 1951, suggested strongly that the insect may overwinter as an adult in New York State. Phillips (1951) found the species in sour-cherry orchards in the Niagara Peninsula of Ontario
