The purpose of this paper was to describe the results of investigations on the distributions of the injured trees by the Japanes swift moth, Phassus excrescens BUTLER, in cryptomeria afforested land in YOKOTA, Shimane Prefecture, in 1962.
These results are sbown in Figure 1.
The cryptomeria afforested land had gentle slopes and the slopes run from northern to the southern sides Consequently, the density of the Japanese swift moth was higher in lower side than in the other. It may be due to the special climatic condition in the lower side where no wind blows and sunny.
