Dear
All,
In fall 2016, the scale Nipponaclerda biwakoensis (Kuwana) (Hemiptera: Aclerdidae) was discovered attacking Phragmites (roseau cane) in Plaquemines Parish. The native range of this scale includes China and Japan. The objectives of the webinar will be to describe the problem, present current knowledge on the biology and ecology of the scale, and propose short and long term management options.
Presenters: Drs. Jim Cronin, Blake Wilson and Rodrigo Diaz
The webinar will be on Thursday, April 27th at 10:00 am CST; but please join the webinar by 9:50 am.
