Cobb at the Office of Nematology in Washington D.C., part of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Between 1923 and 1937 he published 19 papers on the nematode parasites of insects, as well as contributed to a 129-page chapter in Benjamin Goodwin Chitwood's Introduction to Nematology. While working at Woods Hole with N. A. Cobb, he also discovered the life cycle of the nematode parasite on grasshoppers Mermis subnigrescens.
