Note.

This east-Asian species is known from throughout the eastern USA ( Rabaglia et al. 2006), including nearby Ohio ( Lightle et al. 2007) and Michigan ( Cognato et al. 2009), from as far north as 45.350°N. This species breeds in many broadleaved woody plants and is a pest in the USA in apparently healthy nursery material and fruit trees. ( Kovach and Gorsuch 1985, Oliver and Mannion 2001)
