Excerpt from The Pine Moth of Nantucket: Retinia Frustana

The pines on the island of Nantucket (pinus rigida Miller), set out some twenty or thirty years ago, are fast dying in large numbers from a cause hitherto unknown. A great many have already perished, and most of the living trees look sickly. On the Old South Road, from Nantucket to Siasconset, all the trees on one side of the road are quite dead, or fast dying, while upon the opposite they are comparatively healthy-look ing, although seriously affected.
