Asian Longhorned Beetle Larvae

The Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis, is a recently introduced non-native invasive insect with potential to become a major pest in the United States. The beetle infests and can eventually kill hardwood trees in more than 15 plant families. The Northern Research Station studies the biology and management of Asian longhorned beetle infestations.
