Lookout Asked For New
WeeyilS found in MiSsissiI

A weevil has been found in Stone
County, Mississippi in considerable
numbers, which is injurious to pota
to, tomato, and turnips. Southern
cntomologists are especially request
ed by the United States Department
of Agriculture to keep a sharp look
out for this species. 1t seems to be
identical with Desiantha nociva Lea,
known in Australia rs the tomato
weevil. 1t is about one-third of an
inch long, dull gray in color, and
bears on the wing-covers a pale "
shaped mark. 1t has been known in
Australia since 1908, and does much
damage. The larvae feed upon the
plants at night, hiding under ground
during the day.
The State cntomologist Of Missis-
sippi is trying TO find out how far
this wcevil has spread. and the Bu-
rcau of Entomology is actively CO.
operating.
