Apple Cvetod

The beetle is brownish-brown in color, with hairs on the upper surface of the body, making spots or streaks visible on the back. Non-ripened beetles hibernate in the fallen leaves and in the upper soil layer. Early in the spring, the beetles creep through the trees, under which they wintered, and then settled throughout the garden. At this time, they feed on the kidneys, piercing them with their proboscis, making the kidneys rich in juice. With such nutrition beetles become sexually mature and after mating they lay eggs in buds. The larvae developing from eggs eat stamens and pestles. Damaged buds do not dissolve and become brown.

Winter Moth and Moth Masked The male moths of the winter moth and "ripped off" have wings and fly well. Female winter moths have only the rudiments of the wings, and

in moths "flipped" wingless. During the bud budding, the caterpillars, leaving eggs laid at the base of the kidneys, at first eat buds, and then leaves. The caterpillars of the winter five

deniks stick together the leaves with a web and between them they secretly feed. Adult caterpillars completely eat leaves.

Ringed silkworm

With great spreading it does great harm by eating leaves. Adult caterpillars have bluish and yellowish-brown longitudinal strips along the back. Young gu-

seniks arrange nests of cobwebs in the forks of branches and are kept in groups. They eat buds, flowers and leaves to such an extent that there is no green on the tree at all. Caterpillars pupate in silky cocoons, in the over-grown leaves. Butterflies lay eggs on thin young branches in the form of a grayish ring. In this form, eggs are overwintered, and in the spring of them caterpillars of dark color come out, braid the young leaves with cobwebs and eat them.
