Abstract:

The sycamore lace bug(Corythucha ciliata) was a new invasive insect species which heavily damaged Platanus spp. and other horticultural plants. It had spread over many cities along the middle and lower reaches of Changjiang River in China. The distributions and damage characteristics of the bug and its host plants as well were briefly introduced. Its spread speed and dispersal ways, biological characteristics and control techniques were viewed in details with hope of presenting some available suggestions to prevent the further spread and infestation of the bug in China.

Key words: Corythucha ciliata, invade, biological characteristic, control technique
