USDA Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine collection
1940
The USDA Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine Collection contains materials related to the Japanese beetle, the mountain pine beetle, and Dutch elm disease. There are black and white photographs, bark samples, insect specimens, and framed examples of foliage damage from the insects. Text accompanies the samples. In 2018, ten undated postcards were added from the Bureau of Entomology, depicting mostly parasites of the gypsy moth and the brown-tail moth, as well as representing the gypsy moth, the brown-tail moth, and the satin moth.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture Bureau of Entomology and Plant Quarantine was established in 1934. In 1942, it became part of the Agricultural Research Administration. The purpose of the bureau was to cooperate with state agencies in studying and controlling insects to prevent plant diseases.
From 1940 to 1997, the materials were housed at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, Illinois, and were used for an exhibit.
