Extract

Infestations of Profenusa thomsoni (Konow) have occurred throughout most of northeastern, central, and southern Ontario since 1948 (Sippell, MacDonald, and Wallace, 1956), but before 1955 (Lindquist, 1955), its presence was not recognized because it was confused with the common birch leaf miner, Fenusa pusilla (Lep.).
