Excerpt from Injuries to Forests and Forest Products by Roundheaded BorersThe work of this class of insects usually appears as irregular wind ing mines or wormholes f' in the bark and wood. The mine always starts in the bark, where the minute larva just hatched from the egg starts to bore and feed. At first the mine is very small, but gradually becomes larger as the borer advances and grows in size. As already indicated, the work of some species is confined entirely to the bark. The work of other species is found in both bark and wood. In this case the mine is continuous from bark to wood, the entrance into the wood being a ¿attened oval hole. That part of the mine which is in the wood may be long or short, according to the species. In general it is more or less winding and irregular, contains borings and woody exore ment, and finally broadens out into a cell or pupal chamber.
