Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Birds That Eat the Cotton Boll Weevil: A Report of Progress The problem of controlling the ravages of the cotton boll weevil in the United States is of such moment that it is being studied by the Department of Agriculture from a number of different standpoints. One of these is the relation of birds to the weevil. Accurate informa tion as to the value of our native birds as destroyers of this pest is of considerable importance to the cotton grower, but such information can be obtained only by means of careful and continued observation in the field, supplemented by study of the stomach contents of the birds. Field observations alone, unverified by stomach examinations, have proved unreliable. Birds may be observed picking insects from cotton plants, but it does not follow that the insects are boll weevils; nor is the statement that boll weevils have been found in birds' stomachs, if made by persons unaccustomed to the identification of insects, to be accepted as conclusive. Insect remains in a bird's stomach are nearly always in a more or less disintegrated condition, so that identification of the species is difficult and requires the services of a specialist. Investigation of the problem was begun by the Biological Survey in the fall of 1904 under the direction of Vernon Bailey. The results of this study, with a summary of work done by the Bureau of Entomology, were published in a special bulletin by Mr. Bailey in Stomachs of 38 species of birds were examined, and 11 species were found to have eaten boll weevils. The number of species known to feed on the weevil was increased to 20. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-08-19 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies of Parasites of the Cotton Boll Weevil The boll weevil has been present in the United States for fourteen years. At this time it is doing serious damage to cotton in four States, and during the present season undoubtedly will invade a fifth. In regions like Central America, where the insect has existed for many years, there are various influences that serve to hold it in check. In this country Similar influences are beginning to be in evidence. Among the direct factors in the natural control Of the boll weevil that are now at work are the following: Heat and dry ness, the native ant Solenopsis geminata, winter temperatures, proliferation, parasites, defoliation by the cotton leaf-worm, deter minate growth, and birds. Of these, proliferation and birds have already received careful special attention, while the work of the native ant has received preliminary notice. The other factors have also been more or less discussed in the publications of the Bureau of Entomology and elsewhere, and more extensive studies of certain ones will be discussed by Dr. W. E. Hinds in Bulletin No. 74 of this Bureau. While the work of parasites, discussed in this bulletin, is not. At present one Of the most important factors in the control of the boll weevil, the indications are clear that its importance will grow rapidly. Moreover, the matter has special interest for the reason that it is not unlikely that practical means may be devised to increase the work of the parasites.
