Author Description

Excerpt from Journal of Entomology and Zoology, Vol. 7: 1915 On September 15, 1912, at Gloversville, Fulton County, New York, I took a eshy species of Fomes (polyporus) growing on a stump near the earth. This contained about 35 larva of Limnobia cinctipes Say, and many larva of Ula elegans Osten Sacken. The larva of these crane-ies infested the upper layers of the fungus and had reduced the surface to a semi-liquid state. At the end of a week the whole mushroom was decayed and semi-liquid. The record of proceedings as it appears in my field-notes is as follows. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
