abstract
Abstract Not Available – First paragraph follows:
The sunflower moth (Homoeosoma electellum Hulst.) will probably never be put on the endangered species list, but many California farmers would iike to see it as extinct as the dinosaurs because of the damage it does to the sunflower crop. This pest has also caused extensive damage to sunflower in Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Nebraska, Texas, Minnesota, North Dakota, and in parts of Canada
