Although the leafhopper Colladonus clitellarius (Say) was found by Gilmer (1954) and Thornberry (1954) to be a vector of eastern X-disease virus of peach and cherry, little has previously been reported concerning the life-history or rearing of the insect. Gilmer (1954) stated that he did not know the host plant of the nymph and that collections of adults as early as June 3, 1953, and as late as October 22, 1951, suggested strongly that the insect may overwinter as an adult in New York State. Phillips (1951) found the species in sour-cherry orchards in the Niagara Peninsula of Ontario

While working on parasites of fish for the New York State Conservation Department during the summer of 1928 it was possible to secure experimental evidence on the life-cycle of Proteocephalus pinguis La Rue 1911. The adult parasite lives in the digestive tract of Esox lucius Linnaeus and E. reticulatus Le Sueur where it ranges in length between 50 and 90 mm. Since La Rue (1914) gives a complete description of the adult it is not necessary to go further into the morphology of this form. Adult tapeworms for the experiments were taken from E. lucius from Lake Erie and Ellicott Creek, near Buffalo, New York, and from E. reticulatus from Barrett and China Ponds near Carmel, New York.

AbstractLoewia foeda (Mg.), a European parasite of the centipede Lithobius, is recorded from two localities in New York State where it has evidently become established as an addition to the Nearctic fauna. The adult is redescribed and figured and its life history briefly reviewed.

Host Associations

Leafmining Agromyzidae (Diptera) are both common and widespread, yet little is known of the host associations and distribution of most species. Here we report on a multi-year study of agromyzid diversity on Long Island, New York. We reared 45 species and identified for the first time a host plant for Agromyza masculina Sehgal and a likely host plant for Ophiomyia carolinensis Spencer. Of the 45 species, 17 are new records for New York State, for which fewer than 40 agromyzid species had previously been known. A new agromyzid species was reared from blotch mines on black-eyed Susan, Rudbeckia sp. and an undetermined yellow garden composite, both in the Asteraceae; this species is described here.
