As a pest of peaches in South Carolina in 1930, the Oriental fruit moth ( Laspeyresia molesta ) was destructive in the Piedmont Section to varieties maturing after the Elberta harvest. It was not a factor in production in the Sand Hill Section at any time. At Clemson College two complete generations were produced, adults of the third and fourth generation appeared, but a portion of the larvae of these generations went into hibernation. Larvae of the fifth generation appeared but all hibernated. The first eggs appeared on April 24, the first larvae on April 29, the first pupae on May 22, and the first moth on June 2. These dates are believed to be much later than normal because of the cold, delayed spring. The first eggs which produced overwintering larvae were laid on August 15 and the last eggs of the season hatched on October 19. The last eggs that produced adults in 1930 were laid on August 31, and the last adult died on October 21 or two days after the first frost. The following parasites were found in South Carolina in 1930:— Arachnophagaa n. sp., Arachnophagaa n. sp., Ascogaster carpocapsae (Vier.), Brachmeria sp? hammari Cwfd., Cremastus tortricidis Cush., Dibrachys boucheanus (Ratz.), Eupelmus cyaniceps var amicus Gir., Eupelmus limneriae (How), Goniozus columbian us Ashm., Haltichella longicornis Ashm., Macrocentrus ancylivora Roh. (introduced), Macrocentrus Delicates Cress., Microbracon mellitor (Say), Phanerotomab species, Dilvachsb species and Pristomerousb species.
