Extract

In July 11, 1945, in the city of St. Catharines, Ontario, while looking for some elm trees reported by Dutch elm disease scouts as being severely leaf-eaten, I found two white elms (Ulmus americana L.) carrying large numbers of coleopterous larvae which were at once taken to be referable to the elm leaf beetle, Galerucella xanthomelaena (Schr.)
