Of late years this in- sect has become comparatively abundant as a destroyer of highly valued Maples. Its attack is usually made on perfectly healthy trees. In its simplest form it reveals itself by the bark parting longitudinally and breaking away, disclosing a narrow strip of the wood some five or six inches in length. On the surface of the wood can be seen the furrow of the grub, increasing in its dimensions as it descends and at the lower end entering into the trunk of the tree, or more often winds horizontally about half way around the trunk before entering.
