Fourlined Plant Bug Poecilocapsus Lineatus Order Hemiptera, Family Miridae; Plant Or Leaf Bugs Native Pest Pests of Trees and Shrubs Fourlined plant bug Poecilocapsus lineatus Order Hemiptera, Family Miridae; plant or leaf bugs Native pest Host plants: Amur maple, azalea, dogwood, forsythia, rose, viburnum, and approximately 250 other plant species, especially in the mint family. Description: Adult bugs usually have yellow forewings but these may change to bright green. There are four black stripes down the back. Adults are approximately 7 mm long. Larvae vary from red to yellow with black stripes only on the wing buds. Fourlined plant bug adult. (130) Life history: Eggs hatch in late April to May. The nymphal Photo: David Laughlin developmental stage lasts about 30 days. Adults feed on the upper surface of leaves. There is one generation a year. Overwintering: Eggs inserted into a slit near the top of shoots. Damage symptoms: Feeding by both adults and nymphs may cause stippling on leaves—spots of discoloration that may turn from yellow to brown to black. Holes may develop in leaves when heavy infestations occur. Plants are not killed by this insect. Feeding activity ends in early summer. Monitoring: The fourlined plant bug hides under leaves and may be difficult to detect. Look in May and June for signs of stippling on leaves. Net sweeps of foliage may confirm the presence of this insect. Cultural control: Prune perennial plants at ground level to dispose of nymphs. Chemical control: Spray in May and June if feeding damage reaches unacceptable levels. Horticultural oils are effective against nymphs. Biological control: No report of natural enemies. Plant mortality risk: Low Biorational pesticides: azadirachtin, insecticidal soap, pyrethrins Conventional pesticides: acephate, bifenthrin, carbaryl, chlorpyrifos (nursery only), cyfluthrin, deltamethrin, fluvalinate, imidacloprid, lambda-cyhalothrin, malathion, permethrin IPM of Midwest Landscapes 140.

In addition to photos of the pests, there are photos of some beneficial insects and mites as well. This is to help determine if the insect or mite you see is a friend or foe. The photos show pests and beneficials in different views and magnifications. Sometimes, plant injury symptoms are good ways to identify particular pest problems. Where appropriate, photos of plant injury are included. Line drawings of life cycles, common species within each pest group, and brief descriptions of pest biology are included.

Williams Abstract In order to understand any animal and its habitat requirements, we must know what it eats. Reported here are observations of feeding by 27 species of true bugs (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) encountered in various habitats in Wisconsin over the years 2003–2014. This is the first report ofAnasa repetita Heidemann (Coreidae) from Wisconsin. ____________________ Knowing what an animal eats is essential to our understanding of that animal and its habitat requirements. Over the years 2003–2014, I accumulated many observations of insects feeding in Wisconsin. These data are vouchered by hand-collected specimens given to the Insect Research Collection of the Entomology Department at University of Wisconsin - Madison.

Weather: Pr 8 mm; RH 38%; BP 101.6 kPa; clear; NW 00-40 kmh; T 22ºC Activity: Collecting arthropods with our best assistant. 6:26 pm: Is the mother Raccoon, down early, telling youngster to go back to bed.? After stopping by the milkweed plants growing by the gate, where I found a green Polydrusus Weevil on a leaf, we drove down to the trailer with a high wind swaying all the trees along the track. Five Turkey Vultures circling over the power lines had a tough time staying over target. “Did something die”? asked Laura. She shuddered when I replied in mock seriousness, “We might find a corpse.” We never found a corpse but, thanks to the wind, I thought today's prospects had died. But winds were calmer in the Lower Meadow and I began to think all was not lost. Not only were flies, wasps, and butterflies flying about, but I found a Nursery Web Spider hiding in the bottom of the backup rain gauge, jealously guarding her ball of eggs. Laura, a science student at Western, is our best field assistant yet; often I turn to ask her to do something and she’s already done it. Thus she righted the garbage pail despoiled by Raccoons and cleaned up the mess. We went down to the creek to place a yellow flag beside the Green Dragon for members of the West Elgin Nature Club to visit.

  • A Systematic Study of the Genus Phytocoris Fallén (Heteroptera
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Michael Stonedahl for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Entomology presented on December 9, 1982 Title: A systematic study of the genus Phytocoris Fallen (Heteroptera: Miridae) in western North America Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: John D. Lattin The western Nearctic species of the genus Phytocoris Fallen were taxonomically revised. Over 15,000 specimens were examined. Information concerning host plant associations and distributions was compiled and summarized for use by future researchers. External morphological features and characters of the male genitalia were used to distinguish species. The genital tubercles above the clasper bases, claspers, and sclerotized process of the vesica were especially useful in this effort. These structures have been illustrated for each of the included species. One-hundred and sixty-two species of Phytocoris are now recognized from western North America. These have been arranged into 20 species-groups ranging in size from two to twenty-two species. The formation of species-groups was based primarily on characters of the male genitalia. Relationships between groups were cladistically analyzed. Forty-four characters of the male genitalia and external morphology were used to determine the final arrangement of species-groups. Forty-six new species are described, and the following synonymies are proposed (senior synonym first): acaciae Knight = minuendus Knight; calli Knight = laticeps Knight; deserticola Knight lineatellus Knight; empirensis Knight m rinconae Knight; fraterculus Van Duzee = westwoodi Bliven; fuscipennis Knight = longirostris Knight; geniculatus Van Duzee = blackwelli Bliven; interspersus Uhler = eurekae Bliven; juniperanus Knight = chiricahuae Knight, flaviatus Knight, santaritae Knight; ketinelbi Bliven = kahtahbi Bliven; knowltoni Knight = albertae Knight, elongatus Knight; maritimus Van Duzee = sequoiae Bliven; neglectus Knight = yuroki Bliven; nigrifrons Van Duzee = abiesi.

Our report includes up-to-date disease and insect pest reports for northeastern Illinois. You'll also find a table of accumulated growing degree days (GDD) throughout Illinois, precipitation, and plant phenology indicators to help predict pest emergence. Arboretum staff and volunteers will be scouting for insects and diseases throughout the season. We will also be including information about other pest and disease problems based on samples brought into The Arboretum's Plant Clinic. We are continuing to use last year’s format: full issues alternating with growing degree day (GDD) issues; focus on more serious pests; minor pests covered in shorter articles; alerts issued for new major pests.
