In eastern England Onychiurus armatus (Tullb.) and O. fimetarius (L.) were found associated with damaged sugar-beet seedling roots soon after sowing in mid-March, 1973, when the mean soil temperature ranged from 3 to 11 deg C; observations confirmed that O. armatus caused similar damage to seedlings under laboratory conditions.
