Abstract

This study of the peach twig borer began in June 1935 continuing throughout that summer and again during the following year. The work was carried out at the Davis Couty Experiment Farm at Farmington, Utah and as made possible through the cooperation of the Entomological and Horticultural departments of the Utah Agricultural Experiment Station. Since the peach twig borer is one of the most important insect pests of the peach found in Utah this study was begun for the purpose of learning the life history and habits of this insect in Utah.
