The southern pine beetle has four life stages; eggs‚ larva‚ pupa and adult. These stages are important in the infestation process of the SPB. Also the infestation process of the SPB consists out of four stages; colonization‚ re-emergence‚ brood survival‚ and emergence. In figure ?? an overview of the process‚ described below‚ is to be found. Thatcher‚ 1981 Colonization the process of colonization involves location of a suitable host tree‚ identification of the tree‚ aggregation of enough

After about two weeks‚ the eggs will hatch under the right conditions and the larvae take their first steps (or wiggles) on Earth. The larvae immediately begin chewing their way into the inside of the tree where they feed off the tree until winter. If a clutch of eggs were laid later in the season‚ they will overwinter as larva and require an additional year

management methods for the Chinese mitten crab‚ scientists have attempted to locate larvae patches and insert tracking devices to examine the crab’s movement. These devices would allow scientists to determine larval trajectories in estuarine and marine water. (Dittel and Epifanio 2009).) In the case of the Chinese mitten crab‚ using technology would improve invasion management because knowledge of the movement patterns of its larvae would enable scientists to confine increasing crab populations before they

The Forest Tent Caterpillars latin name is Malacosoma disstria Hubner and is native to North America. They can be found through forests that contain hardwoods and are most prolific in the eastern parts. Trees that the Forest Tent Caterpillar attacks in New York are basswood‚ ash‚ sugar maple‚ alder‚ cherry‚ elm‚ apple‚ aspen‚ birch‚ and oaks. Trees that are not hosts for this pest are conifers‚ red maple‚ and sycamore. The New York State of Department of Environmental Conservation also says that

Cysticercosis is a disease caused by ingestion of the eggs of Taenia solium. Neurocysticercosis occurs when the tapeworm parasite infests the central nervous system (CNS). This infection is becoming increasingly common in places such as‚ Latin America‚ Central America‚ and Southeast Asia. Immigration has increased the area of infection and stopped the confinement to certain geographical areas. These infections occur via fecal-oral route and can come from fresh produce. Most of the infections can

The life cycle of these fruit flies consist of egg‚ larvae‚ metamorphosis‚ and then adult stages. During the egg stage of their life cycle‚ the eggs are sunk into the food until they become larvae that spend all of their time eating. After‚ the larvae go through two molting phases called instars‚
