Excerpt from Fourteenth Report of the State Entomologist on the Noxious and Beneficial Insects of the State of Illinois: Third Annual Report of S. A. Forbes, for the Year 1884 From the above we may infer the usual existence of two broods and at least the occasional occurrence of a third, even in those seasons when the results of their multiplication are relatively ih significant, and the insects themselves escape general notice. Their life history in time of peace hence does not differ materially from that during seasons of immense and wide-extended ravage.
