WELLESLEYMA.GOV [email protected] 2017 Winter Moth Caterpillar Update In Wellesley and throughout eastern Massachusetts the winter moth caterpillar has been defoliating trees during the spring. Under the authority of the Natural Resources Commission and the guidelines of the Wellesley Integrated Pest Management Policy, the Department of Public Works will be deferring the ground spraying town trees to control winter moth caterpillars, unless an identified tree is determined in need of spraying in order to survive. These exceptions will be treated with Conserve #SC, a spinosad based product, E.P.A. Reg. #62719-291. Hours of spraying will occur between 5am thru 10 am. and will not occur after May 30th, 2016. All treated areas will be posted for 24 hours before and after applications. This is the same strategy we applied in 2014, 2015 AND 2016. During those years we found no trees in need of spraying. The reason for this strategy is due to a team of scientists led by Joseph Elkinton at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. This team released approximately 1,000 parasitic flies at Centennial Park in Wellesley on May 9th, 2008, to help biologically control this invasive caterpillar. In eastern Massachusetts this caterpillar has been stripping the foliage from many kinds of deciduous trees in towns that stretch from the North Shore to Cape Cod.

  • Winter Moth After Hatching, the Young Larvae Crawl up Tree Trunks and Produce Silken Threads That Can Carry Operophtera Brumata Them in the Wind
    Department of Conservation and Recreation pest P.O. Box 484, Amherst, MA 01004 Tel: 413-256-1601 alert www.mass.gov/dcr Winter Moth After hatching, the young larvae crawl up tree trunks and produce silken threads that can carry Operophtera brumata them in the wind. This dispersal method, called The winter moth was introduced to North America “ballooning,” is common among defoliators. Larvae from Europe and was first recorded in Nova Scotia are light green loopers (inchworms) that measure in the early 1930s. Infestations are now known to about one inch in length when fully grown. Young occur in New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, larvae feed within buds and on expanding foliage, British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon, and while older larvae can consume entire leaves. the pest is now established in coastal Massachusetts Feeding is generally completed by mid-June when from Orleans on Cape Cod to Gloucester on larvae pupate in the soil. Cape Ann. There are also unconfirmed reports of spotty infestations along Route 495 south of the Control Massachusetts Turnpike. No natural controls are known to be present in Massachusetts, but researchers at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst are actively collecting and rearing a parasitic fly Cyzenis( albicans) that was very effective at controlling winter moth outbreaks in eastern Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Unfortunately, effective biological control is many years away. For recently defoliated trees, an application of a registered pesticide may be warranted.

  • Winter Moth Operophtera Brumata
    Maine Forest Service ● MAINE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE, CONSERVATION & FORESTRY Insect and Disease Laboratory ● 168 State House Station ● 50 Hospital Street ● Augusta, Maine ● 04333 Winter Moth Operophtera brumata www.maineforestservice.gov ● [email protected] ● (207) 287-2431 ● 1-800-367-0223 (in Maine) Introduction Winter moth was introduced into North America from Europe. It was first recorded in Nova Scotia in the 1930s and then in the Pacific Northwest (British Columbia, Oregon and Washington) in the 1970’s. Winter moth showed up in eastern Massachusetts in the early 2000’s and has since spread westward in MA, into Rhode Island and now coastal Maine from Kittery to Bar Harbor. The larvae of winter moth defoliate deciduous trees and shrubs in early spring. Trees heavily defoliated by winter moth for three or more years can exhibit branch dieback and mortality. At least some of the winter moths were likely introduced into Maine as cocoons in the soil of landscape trees and plants from infested areas in southern New England. This insect is very closely related to the native Bruce spanworm, Operophtera bruceata . It is extremely difficult, (and impossible in the field), to tell the two species apart. Bruce spanworm is an occasional pest of trees in Maine and rarely remains a problem for long. This is in contrast to winter moth that has no natural enemies in North America to keep the populations in check. Hosts Winter moth feed on the leaves of many deciduous trees and shrubs in Maine. Preferred hosts include oak, maple, apple, elm, ash, crabapple, cherry, and blueberry.

  • Cyzenis Albicans (Diptera: Tachinidae) Does Not Prevent the Outbreak Of
    BIOLOGICAL CONTROL Cyzenis albicans (Diptera: Tachinidae) Does Not Prevent the Outbreak of Winter Moth (Lepidoptera: Geometridae) in Birch Stands and Blueberry Plots on the Lower Mainland of British Columbia 1 2 FINBARR G. HORGAN, JUDITH H. MYERS, AND ROSE VAN MEEL Departments of Zoology and Plant Science, University of British Columbia, 6270 University Boulevard, Vancouver, BC, V6T 1Z4, Canada Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/ee/article/28/1/96/502294 by guest on 29 September 2021 Environ. Entomol. 28(1): 96Ð107 (1999) ABSTRACT In the late 1980s, a new outbreak of the introduced winter moth, Operophtera brumata (L.), occurred in Richmond, on the lower mainland of British Columbia. This was accompanied by the introduced parasitoid, Cyzenis albicans (Falle´n). Populations were monitored at 2 birch wood- lands and 2 blueberry plots between 1989 and 1993. Parasitism by C. albicans and predation by generalist predators were important mortality factors during the outbreak. Predation of moth pupae increased at all sites between 1989 and 1990. Parasitism by C. albicans caused signiÞcant mortality each year reaching a maximum in 1991 and remaining high through to 1993 at birch sites. The winter moth populations collapsed simultaneously in 1992 at all study sites, despite different levels of parasitism and 2 very different host plants. As the outbreak collapsed at Richmond, the moth continued to increase in numbers and cause severe defoliation of birch at new sites in southern Vancouver where parasitism remained low. C. albicans is unable to prevent the initial outbreak of winter moth even when the 2 species are introduced simultaneously. The parasitoid requires high density host populations before becoming well established, but may contribute sufÞcient additional mortality to prevent subsequent prolonged outbreaks.

Comparisons were made by field observation and experimentation during the first four years of winter moth decline following introduction of C. albicans and Agirypon f laveolatum in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Successful control of winter moth on oaks was compared with failure on apple trees.
