BLUEGILL
(Lepomis macrochirus)

RANGE: Probably our most popu-
lar panfish, and found in fresh
waters in nearly every part of the
State. Originally found in the
Mississippi River Valley and Great
Lakes Region, and most of the
South Atlantic States; by trans
planting it is now found in almost
every State, and is well adapted to
farm and other small fish ponds.
Also found in rivers and lakes.
DESCRIPTION: While similar to
other species of sunfishes it has
several distinctive characteristics;
it has a jet black ear flap with no
margin showing; usually an in
distinct black spot at the rear end
of the back or dorsal fin; no spots
on sides; most specimens under
half pound although individuals
over two pounds are occasionally
reported.
BREEDING: Bluegills build nests
in colonies in shallow water, and
spawn several times a season; as
with the black bass and crappies
the male prepares the nest and
guards the eggs, and also the
young for a short period; increases

Boxelder Bugs
Are Here Again

The little red and black boxelder
bug is back again to plague home
owners, T. L. BiSSel, University of
Maryland Extension entomologist,
said.
This annual pest is prevalent all
year except during the summer
months when it feeds on the leaves
of the boxclder tree, Bissell said
There have been some reports of
boxelder bugs staining clothing, ac-
cording to BiSsell, but otherwise
the bugs are harmless.
Maryland was free of these in
sects until the 192O's when the bug
followed the boxeldcr tree which
was brought into the state from
the West. The bugs live only on
the female of the boXelder trees
The female tree may be identified
by its small. double seed pods SINH
lar to seed pods found on silver
naples 1t is from these pods that
the bugs feed. The male of the
boxelder tree does not have the
pods.
When the pods dry up and the
leaves fall, boXelder bugs seek
shelter elsewhere-usually in sun
ny exposures around the house Bis
sell said the bugs can also be
found or rocks, tree trunks and in
wood piles.
He recommends three methods of
combating these household pests
The best method, he said, is to get
rid of the female boXelder trees
The next method is to make the
house bug-proof and the third

rapidly and many waters become
overstocked resulting in large num-
bers of stunted fish.
HABITS: Feeds on flies, worms,
crustaceans, and small fish; will
take artificials; furnishes excellent
sport on light tackle; travel in
schools and where one is caught
there will be others.
MANAGEMENT: Food, cover and
unpolluted waters are essential;
little if any legal protection is
necessary, as usually they multiply
faster than the food supply will
support; propagation and restock-
ing necessary only in waters un-
inhabited by bluegills.
VALUE: OF little or no commercial
value in Maryland although barrels
of the various sunfishes are almost
daily shipped to markets from
Gulf States. Its esthetic value and
for recreation in Maryland are
inestimable; they provide a vast
army of old and young anglers
lots of sport, and while mostly
small, the meat is firm, white and
tasty, providing a large quantity
of excellent food.
