	Larch - LoveToKnow 1911
		The larch abounds on the Alps of Switzerland, on which it flourishes at an elevation of 5000 ft., and also on those of Tirol and Savoy, on the Carpathians, and in most of the hill regions of central Europe; it is not wild on the Apennine Branchlet of Larch (Larix europaea).
		The Siberian larch has smooth grey bark and smaller cones, approaching in shape somewhat to those of the American hackmatack; it seems even hardier than the Alpine tree, growing up to latitude 68°, but, as the inclement climate of the polar shores is neared, dwindling down to a dwarf and even trailing bush.
		The thinnings of the larch woods in the Highlands are in demand for railway sleepers, scaffold poles, and mining timber, and are applied to a variety of agricultural purposes.

	Larch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Larches are conifers in the genus Larix, in the family Pinaceae.
		Larches are among the dominant plants in the immense boreal forests of Russia and Canada.
		Larch cones are erect, small, 1-9 cm long, green or purple, ripening brown 5-8 months after pollination; in about half the species the bract scales are long and visible, and in the others, short and hidden between the seed scales.

		In September 2004, ISCA Technologies, Inc. (Riverside, CA) was awarded a contract by USDA-APHIS to develop and test the scale-up synthesis of the siberian moth pheromone, and synthesize 200 grams of two key compounds of the pheromone blend.
		The siberian moth, Dendrolimus superans sibiricus, is a major defoliator of coniferous forests in its native Urals, Siberia, and the Far East.
		The first line of defense against the moth's invasion is to track the insect's whereabouts and population sizes in its native habitat, and at possible ports of entry and habitats in the United States.

		In the spring when larch trees are leafed out and the new growth is expanding, the female fly can be seen depositing eggs in new shoots near the branch tips.
		Micro-injections should be applied in the spring or early summer, prior to the second week of June in Southcentral Alaska, or during the initial growth period to maximize effectiveness.
