Abstract/Contents:Discusses the biology of the Oriental beetle in western North Carolina and implications for management programs. Also presents a research program with the objectives: "to determine the distribution with the use of pheromone traps of the Oriental beetle in western North Carolina"; "to determine the overall abundance and damage of the Oriental beetle"; "to compare the development of the Oriental beetle to the Japanese beetle in western North Carolina"; and "to evaluate various control methodologies against the Oriental beetle grubs." Results include that "both the Japanese beetle grubs and the Oriental beetle grubs are widespread in the Ashville area and most likely throughout western North Carolina. The number of beetles captured in traps indicates the potential for serious turf damage is quite real."
