| Abstract/Contents: | Profiles the Japanese beetle (Popillia japonica), stating that it has "become the most economically damaging pest of turf and landscape plantings in the eastern United States." Describes control attempts, including the introduction of a wasp, Tiphia vernalis, a natural predator of the beetle. Presents a survery "conducted on 10 golf course fairwyas, at least 1 in each county, to determine if T. vernalis was established in all of Connecticut's 8 counties" in 2004. Reports that "T. vernalis wasps are...distributed throughout all of the Connecticut's 8 counties, even in counties where they were not released." |
