Blissus Leucopterus

This pernicious insect has been very abundant here for many years. As early as 1874 I found it in considerable numbers among moss on dry, grassy hill-sides at Lancaster, N. Y. This season (1886) it was remarkably abundant in a dry upland hay field near the same locality. I have also taken it at Ridgeway, Ont. Ordinarily the short winged form predominates, but in hot, dry summers, such as those of 1881 and 1886, they mostly acquire fully developed membranes. I find on comparison with a lot of perhaps one hundred fully developed examples from Kansas, that ours are quite uniformly larger and more robust, with longer hairs on the pronotum.

Blissus Leucopterus

Chinch bug, Blissus leucopterus leucopterus (Say), population densities and damage were recorded from bermudagrass, Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers., pastures in Tifton, GA. Field observations of chinch bug populations indicated they prefer and/or damage goosegrass (Eleusine indica [L.) Gaertn) > Texas panicum, (Panicum texanum [Buckl]) > bermudagrass ≥ crowfoot grass, (Dactyloctenium aegyptium) [L.]), pigweed, (Amaranthus sp.), or sicklepod, (Cassia obtusifolia [L.]). These results suggest initial chinch bug infestations originated on goosegrass and spread to bermudagrass. Laboratory assays using adult and nymphal chinch bugs showed a preference for goosegrass over other grasses and weeds in bermudagrass pastures. A laboratory assay of six bermudagrass varieties showed that Kenya 61 was most preferred and Tifton 292 the least preferred by chinch bug nymphs.
