• European fruit scale

  The female is immobile and covered with a circular waxy shell that becomes dark gray over time and is elevated at the center. The adult male is brownish red with an elongated abdomen, long antennae and wings.

• Replant disorders

  In general, trees suffering from replant disease show slow and uneven growth within the first three years of planting. Both specific and non-specific replant disorders are known.

• Peach bark beetle

  Adult's body is brown with many punctures, from which arise yellowish hairs. The larva is a small, legless grub.

• Dogwood borer

  The adult is bluish black with yellow bands and has clear wings, resembling a wasp. Larva is creamy white to pink with a sclerotized reddish head.

• Shothole borer

  The adult is stocky with a hard black body and antennae, leg segments and tips of elytra reddish brown; its head is not visible from above.
