Abstract
The Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (ALB, Coleoptera: Cerambycidae), is a federally regulated invasive species capable of infesting several different genera of hardwood trees. Accurate knowledge of ALB's phenology is critical for the effective implementation of management and eradication plans. We updated the ALBLT prediction model and used empirical data collected in South Carolina, USA to validate ALBLT v. 2.0. The new model largely agreed with ALB life stages found in field collections, except for late instars and pupae. We also ran the model at 8 other potentially high-risk cities in the contiguous United States with latitudes ranging from 28°N (Tampa, FL) to 41°N (Chicago, IL) to predict how long a single ALB generation might take to develop in these environments. Model predictions ranged from a 2-3-yr lifecycle in Chicago to a potential life cycle of < 1 yr in Tampa. These predictions can help inform managers and invasive species specialists should ALB be found in new environments, and these data can aid in developing an adequate management and eradication plan.
亚洲长角甲虫(Anoplophora glabripennis, ALB,鞘翅目:天牛科)是一种受美国联邦政府管制的入侵物种,能够侵食几种不同属的阔叶树。准确了解白斑病的物候对有效实施管理和根除计划至关重要。我们更新了ALBLT预测模型,并使用在美国南卡罗来纳州收集的经验数据来验证ALBLT v. 2.0。新模型与现场收集的ALB生命阶段基本一致,除了后期和蛹。我们还在美国邻近的其他8个潜在高风险城市(纬度范围从北纬28°(佛罗里达州坦帕)到北纬41°(伊利诺伊州芝加哥))运行了该模型,以预测单个ALB一代在这些环境中可能需要多长时间。模型的预测范围从芝加哥的2-3年生命周期到潜在的生命周期
