— The Raspberry Cane-borer.
Oberea himaculata Oliv.
This insect in the larval state lives in the centre of the cane, where it burrows a passage from above downwards, often causing the death of tiie cane. Its natural home is among the wild raspberries, but it has taken very kindly to the cultivated sorts, and appears indeed to prefer them.
The perfect insect is a long-horned beetle (see Fig. 315), with a long and narrow black body, with the top of the thorax and the fore part of the breast pale ...yel- lowish; the wing-cases are covered with coarse Fig. 315.
indentations and slightly notched at the ends, and there are two black spots on the thorax, which, however, are sometimes wanting, and a third black dot on the hinder edge, just where the wing-covers join the thorax. The beetles appear on the wing daring the month of June, and, after pairing, the female proceeds to deposit her eggs, which she does in a very singular manner, 20 306 INSECTS INJURIOUS TO THE RASPBERRY.
With her mandibles she girdles the young growing cane near the tip in two places, one ring being about an inch below the other, and between the rings the cane is pierced, and an egg thrust into its substance near the middle, its location being indicated by a small, dark-colored spot.
