I am deeply grateful to all who have provided their time and expertise, and to the organizations which funded my work. My adviser, Dr. Bill Hutchison has afforded extensive opportunities for me to learn and grow as an entomologist, scientist, and person. I sincerely appreciate all he has done for me and his genuine acceptance of my path through graduate school. I have relied heavily on the expertise of my committee members, Dr. Bob Koch, Dr. Kathy Quick, and Dr. Rob Venette. It has been a pleasure to get to work closely with all of them, and their feedback has been invaluable in this process. Eric Burkness has been an essential and irreplaceable teacher, who has provided level-headed answers to the diverse and endless stream of question I have asked him. I would also like to acknowledge the profound impact that my early entomological mentors, Su Borkin and Dr. Dan Young have had on my life’s trajectory. Su’s mentorship and advice, starting when I was in high school, and has continued to inspire and guide me. I didn’t know I could be an entomologist until I started working for Su at the Milwaukee Public Museum. As an undergraduate at UW Madison, Dan further encouraged my pursuit of entomology. His infectious enthusiasm and deep knowledge of the field were a steady source of motivation, and the personalized advising Dan provided, kept me on the entomological track when I was being pulled in so many other ways. I am also thankful for financial support from the following sources: USDA/MDA Specialty Crop Block grant, McLaughlin Gormley King Corp., Fdn.

Likewise, clear communication about scientific research pertaining to management is needed for managers to make well-informed decisions. My research pertains to the biology of the brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys and communication between scientists about insecticidal categorization. Halyomorpha halys is an exotic invasive species in North America. Many horticultural and agricultural plants in North America are at risk for economic damage due to the highly polyphagous nature of this species. Additionally, H. halys has become a serious nuisance pest in human-made structures in some areas when, in preparation for winter, they aggregate in sheltered structures. Therefore, factors such as cold and insecticides, which affect H. halys distribution and ability to cause crop injury are of particular interest to develop management plans. I first conducted several studies of cold tolerance on H. halys in North America. I found that H. halys exhibits a chill-intolerant cold tolerance strategy, that season, sex, and acclimation location affect cold tolerance (i.e., supercooling points), and that laboratory assays of lethal temperature were able to accurately forecast winter mortality in the field. Second, I studied H. halys diapause in more depth. I present a protocol for rearing diapausing H. halys in the laboratory that exhibit similar cold tolerance (i.e., supercooling points and lower lethal temperatures) as individuals with field-induced diapause. I found that H. halys diapause confers greater cold tolerance than a non-diapausing state, and appears to be necessary to survive overwintering. Additionally, I showed diapausing H. halys actively feed for at least three weeks post-diapause induction, but feeding is mediated by temperature and adult age. Third, I investigated and critiqued the current paradigm for determining insecticidal efficacy on H. halys. I highlighted important sublethal effects of insecticides on feeding that can significantly reduce crop injury without the necessity of high direct mortality to H. halys. Lastly, using an interdisciplinary lens I examined linguistic uncertainty as it pertains to categories and descriptors of insecticides. I demonstrated the presence and consequences of v linguistically uncertain terms associated with insecticides and encouraged entomologists to more adequately acknowledge and address these uncertainties in future research. vi Table of Contents Copyright Permission........................................................................................................... i Acknowledgements ............................................................................................................. ii Dedication .......................................................................................................................... iv Abstract ............................................................................................................................... v Table of Contents .............................................................................................................. vii List of Tables ..................................................................................................................... xi List of Figures .................................................................................................................. xiii Introduction ....................................................................................................................... 1 Insecticides ...................................................................................................................... 2 Insect cold tolerance ....................................................................................................... 2 Uncertainty ...................................................................................................................... 4 Halyomorpha halys ......................................................................................................... 4 Insecticidal management of Halyomorpha halys ........................................................ 5 Cold tolerance of Halyomorpha halys ........................................................................ 5 Chapters .......................................................................................................................... 6 Chapter 1: Cold tolerance of Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) across geographic and temporal scales ..................................................................................... 10 Summary ....................................................................................................................... 10 Introduction ................................................................................................................... 10 Materials and

Erste Nachweise von Halyomorpha halys (STÅL, 1855) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) in Vorarlberg und Wien, Österreich. The Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Halyomorpha halys (STÅL, 1855), is native to East Asia (China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Vietnam) (LEE & al. 2013). It was first discovered outside its native distribution range in North America in the mid-1990s (HOEBEKE & CARTER 2003) and has spread to more than 40 U.S. federal states and Canada (Ontario) since then. The first record in Europe dates back to 2004, when specimens were found in Liechtenstein (ARNOLD 2009). Halyomorpha halys was subsequently recorded in several cantons in Switzerland (e.g., WERMELINGER & al. 2008, WYNIGER & KMENT 2010, HAYE & al. 2014a), southern Germany (HEckMANN 2012) and northeastern regions of France (CALLOT & BRUA 2013). In 2012 it was detected in Modena, northern Italy (MAISTRELLO & al. 2013), and until 2014 approximately 200 records were made in northern Italy (MAISTRELLO & al. 2014). Genetic data indicate that Italian populations derive from at least two independent introduction events, one from Switzerland and one from Asia or North America (CESARI & al. 2015). In 2013 H. halys was detected in France in the region Île-de-France, some 400 km further west (GARROUSTE & al. 2014), and in Hungary in the vicinity of Budapest (VÉTEK & al. 2014), several hundred kilometres away from the closest known records in Italy.

Reeve 1,* and Tim Haye 2 1 CABI, Bakeham Lane, Egham, Surrey TW20 9TY, UK 2 CABI, Rue des Grillons 1, CH-2800 Delémont, Switzerland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Simple Summary: Recent globalization of trade and travel has led to the introduction of exotic insects into Europe, including the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys)—a highly polyphagous pest with more than 200 host plants, including many agricultural crops. Unfortunately, farmers and crop-protection advisers finding egg masses of stink bugs during crop scouting frequently struggle to identify correctly the species based on their egg masses, and easily confuse eggs of the invasive H. halys with those of other (native) species. To this end, we have investigated using matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for rapid, fieldwork-compatible, and low-reagent-cost discrimination between the eggs of native and exotic stink bugs. Abstract: In the current paper, we used a method based on stink bug egg-protein immobilization on filter paper by drying, followed by post-(storage and shipping) extraction in acidified acetonitrile containing matrix, to discriminate between nine different species using MALDI-TOF MS. We obtained 87 correct species-identifications in 87 blind tests using this method. With further processing of the unblinded data, the highest average Bruker score for each tested species was that of the cognate Citation: Reeve, M.A.; Haye, T. reference species, and the observed differences in average Bruker scores were generally large and the Discrimination between Eggs from errors small except for Capocoris fuscispinus, Dolycoris baccarum, and Graphosoma italicum, where the Stink Bugs Species in Europe Using average scores were lower and the errors higher relative to the remaining comparisons.

  • Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Halyomorpha Halys (Stål) (Insecta: Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)1 Cory Penca and Amanda Hodges2
    EENY346 Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Insecta: Hemiptera: Pentatomidae)1 Cory Penca and Amanda Hodges2 Introduction The brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Figure 1), is an invasive stink bug first identi- fied in the United States near Allentown, Pennsylvania, in 2001, though it was likely present in the area several years prior to its discovery (Hoebeke and Carter 2003). In the United States, the brown marmorated stink bug has emerged as a major pest of tree fruits and vegetables, caus- ing millions of dollars’ worth of crop damage and control costs each year (Leskey et al. 2012a). The brown marmo- rated stink bug has also become a nuisance to homeowners due to its use of structures as overwintering sites (Inkley Figure 1. An adult brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys 2012). The significance of the brown marmorated stink bug (Stål). Credits: Lyle J. Buss, UF/IFAS has resulted in a large body of academic, government, and private sector research focused on its control. Distribution The brown marmorated stink bug is native to eastern Synonymy Asia, including China, Taiwan, Korea, and Japan (Lee et Pentatoma halys Stål (1855) al. 2013). Since its discovery in North America the brown marmorated stink bug has spread rapidly throughout the Poecilometis mistus Uhler (1860) eastern and midwestern United States, as well as establish- ing on the West Coast (Figure 2). Following its invasion Dalpada brevis Walker (1867) of North America, the brown marmorated stink bug has expanded its global range into Europe, Eurasia, and South Dalpada remota Walker (1867) America (Chile), making it an invasive species with a global impact (Wermelinger et al.

The antennae of this bug play an important role not only in detecting food and mates but also in short-range location of conspecifics when aggregating for diapause. The morphology and distribution of antennal sensilla of H. halys were investigated at an ultrastructural level using scanning and transmission electron microscopy approaches. Adults have 5-segmented antennae, made up of a scape, a 2-segmented pedicel and two flagellomeres, while 5th instar nymphs have shorter, 4-segmented antennae, with only one pedicel segment. Five types of sensilla are distinguished, based on their shape, length and basal width and the presence of basal socket and pores: sensilla basiconica (types A, B, C, D and E), sensilla coeloconica, sensilla trichoidea and sensilla chaetica (types A and B).
