âThe paucity of humility shown by the Government in the face of such antipathy is stomach-churning.â âLet me start with an apology for the paucity of blogging lately.â âThere's still a paucity of fresh produce in the shops, very little more than a few tired cabbages and exhausted apples to be found.â
A common name for an insect that infests cotton plants is the boll weevil. The adult boll weevils are reddish-brown, gray, or almost black in color and are normally less than 0.24 inches long.
The larvae of this species are better known than the adults. Called âwoolly bearsâ or âwoolly worms,â they are fuzzy with dense, stiff hairs. They are usually black on the ends of the body and rusty red or brownish in the middle.
