THE LESSER PEACH BORER
By A. A. Girault, Engaged in Deciduous Fruit Insect Investiga
tion for the Department of Agrlcul-turc.
Introduction.
Until recently tho only lopldopter
ous borer of the peach known to be
common and Injurious in the oast was
the peach borer (Sannlnoldea exlt
losa Say), an Insect well known to
entomologists and fruit growers alike.
About ton years ago In 1896 how
ever, another somewhat similar borer,
the subject of this paper, now called
tho lesser peach borer, was mention
ed by Webster as "tho peacL borer,"
and again, four years later, Smith re
corded It as being sometimes found
on tho peach In Now Jercey, though
apparently it was not considered a
pest of any importance. It was with
some surprlso tr-.nt, In the Investiga
tion of tho peach borer by this bu
reau during tho past two years, this
insect was diccovered to bo very
abundant on peach In Maryland and
Georgia, and also to a less extent in
western New York and adjacent por
tions of Canada, occurring especially
in tho trunks of old or diseased trees.
At first tho larva was confused with
that of tho peach, borer, but dissim
ilarities In its habits soon led to its
recognition, which was confirmed up
on rearing adults. Aside from Its be
ing a practically un.cogn!zed enemy
of tho peach, tho Insect is of interest
from tho fact that it has borotoforo
ovldontly been more or le?s confused
with tho true peach boror, to which
the larva bears great resemblance in
general appearance. In subsequent
pages there Is given as complete an
account of the species as is possible
at this dato.
Illstory.
Up to tho year 1900 the Bpecles un
dor consideration hau" not beon treat
ed as an Insect of special economic
importance. Provlous to this time it
lmd been known mostly as occurring
on thoplura and cherry, and It had
not boon sufficiently abundant to
causo moro than occasional record of
tho fact in tho llteraturo of economic
entomology. For instance, it ia not
mentioned in tho catalogue of the
exhibit of economic entomology at
tho Lewis and Clark contonnlal ex
position, Portland, Oregon, 1906, giv
en in bulletin No. 53 of this bureau.
It hau boon llstod several times, how
ever, as occurring on plumls and cher
ries, and in the following cases has
oeen mentioned especially in respect
to its injury to these plants: Kellicott
reported serious Injury, in some in-
stances, to plums in New York state
in 1881, but Smith, nine years later
(1890) stated that it was rare in
New Jersey. In 1892 Kollogs report
ed serious injury to cherries In Ohio.
In 1899 Lugger thought the Insect
was increasing In Minnesota. Finally,
in 190C, Quintp.nco reported It as
very abundant In Georgia, causing
material injury to peach trees.
Original Description; Scientific Name.
The Insect was first described as
new to science In 1868 by Groto and
Robinson, from adults captured in
the "Atlantic district (Pennsylva
nia). It was given tho specific namo
plctlpes and placed In tho genus Ae
geria of Fabrlcus. In 1881 It was
described as new by Henry Edwards
under the name of Aegeria Inusltata,
from specimens obtained In tho White
mountains, New Hampshire, and at
Andovor, Mass. Twelve years later
Beutenmuller (1893) established in
usltata Hy. Edwards, as a synonym
of plctlpes. In tho meantime Smith
(1890) had removed tho species plc
tlpes to the genuB Sesla of Fabrlcus,
which removal was accopted later by
Beutenmuller (1896), 1897) and
Dyar (1902). Soon afterwards Hol
land (1903) flm'Ing that tho namo
Sesia had been restricted to a genus
of the Sphlngldao by Fabrlcus, ap
plied to the genus Hubnor's proposed
namo, Synanthedon, which seems to
be the proper courso In this case (p. LOOK
385). Tho Insect's scientific namo. evry day for something now. Hoguo

on a variety of trees, It has become
known by local or common names, de
pending on its most common or most
important food plant In particular lo
calities. It was first found on plum,
and hence was first called, by Dalloy
In 1879, tho plum-tree borer, which
has slnco been tho namo oftonest ap
plied to It. In 1896, as previously
montloned, Webster referred to it in
Sannlnoldea exitlosa Say. This namo
seems preferable to any of tho others,
and more logical, because tho peach j
Is the most Important food plant'
which it attacks at tho prcsont time.
Food Plants; Cliaractcr nnd Extent
of Injury.
It has already been indicated that
the lesser peach borer has moro than
ono food plant, a habit usual with
the members of tho family to which I
It belongs. Bailey, In 1879, first
found it attacking old plum trees at
Buffalo, N. Y., and also wild cher
ries (Prunus serotinus and P. ponn-
sylvanlcus). In 1891 tho same au-i
thor stated that, in addition to its
favorite food plant, It also attacked i
wild black and led cherries at Co
lumbus, O., and very probably would
be found on tho cultivated cherry.
Again tho following year (1892) ho'
briefly states that it attacks both cul-'
tivated and wild chorry In tho same'
locality of Ohio. In 1893 Webster,
reared tho Insect from tho black-knot
fungus, PlowrlEttla morbosa, on chor--
ry and plum. Bentonmuller (1896),
threo years later, gave two additional
food plants, Juneberry (Amolanchlor
canadensis) and tho beach plum
(Prunus mnrltlinn). During tho samo
year Webster (1896) recorded It on
peach. Bentenmullor (1897) then
added chestnut, and In 1899 Lugger
added wild plum, making tho fol
lowing known food plants to date:
Cultivated and wild plums and chor
rles, black-knot fungus on plum and
cherry, Juneberry, beach plum, chest
nut and peach.
