A History of Recent Infestations of the Spruce Budworm in Northwestern Ontario, and an Estimate of Resultant Timber Losses

Problem Addressed: Spruce Budworm infestations in the Lac Seul and Lake Nipigon regions of northwestern Ontario
Goal(s)/Objective(s): Make deductions which indicate when the first severe defoliation occurred.
Key Findings: The potential for future losses within the areas affected by 1955 is almost double the amount destroyed.
