Assessing Flight Potential of the Invasive Asian Longhorned Beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) With Computerized Flight Mills

Journal of Economic Entomology, 2017
The Asian longhorned beetle, Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Lamiinae), is an invasive woodborer that poses a serious threat to urban and natural landscapes. In North America, this beetle is a quarantine pest, and populations are subject to eradication efforts that consist of the identification, removal, and ...

Flight Behavior and Performance ofRhodnius pallescens(Hemiptera: Reduviidae) on a Tethered Flight Mill

Journal of Medical Entomology, 2014
ABSTRACT Flight dispersal of the triatomine bug species Rhodnius pallescens Barber, the principal vector of Chagas disease in Panama, is an important mechanism for spreading Trypanosoma cruzi, causative agent of Chagas disease. This study measures R. pallescens flight performance using a tethered flight mill both when uninfected, and when infected with

Computer-Monitored, 16-Channel Flight Mill for Recording the Flight of Leafhoppers (Homoptera: Auchenorrhyncha)

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1992
A multichannel, computer-monitored flight mill suitable for studying flight performance of small, weakly flying insects such as leafhoppers was developed. The flight mill uses a magnetic bearing and light-weight arm to minimize friction and drag. Sixteen mills can be monitored simultaneously by a PC.

Quantifying Flight of Colorado Potato Beetles (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) with a Microcomputer-Based Flight Mill System

Annals of the Entomological Society of America, 1993
A microcomputer-based flight mill system for Colorado potato beetles, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (Say), is described. The system provides detailed information on flight duration, speed, and frequency of individual flights, according to user-alterable specifications.

Assessing Flight Propensity of the Box Tree Moth, Cydalima perspectalis using Flight Mill Methodology

2023
Box tree moth (Cydalima perspectalis, Walker) is an invasive species present in Croatia since 2012 where causes great damage to plants of the genus Buxus. The pest spreads rapidly, has high reproductive potential and good adaptability. Its known natural dispersal velocity is up to10 km per year.

High Precision Ion Beam Milling with Time of Flight Compensation

International Symposium for Testing and Failure Analysis, 2008
Abstract Advanced semiconductor process technologies demand that patterns are milled precisely and without beam overshoot, which could damage adjacent transistors or expose neighboring interconnects. As mill box size becomes small enough and contains fewer pixels, the probability of the beam landing accurately at any given pixel for the ...

Asian Long‐horned Beetle dispersal potential estimated in computer‐linked flight mills

Journal of Applied Entomology, 2017
AbstractThe Asian Long‐horned Beetle (ALB) is a highly polyphagous species invasive in North America and Europe. This species has been reported to have low dispersing potential, but long‐distance dispersal could occasionally happen. We conducted a preliminary study on laboratory‐reared adults from invasive populations to measure the flying potential of
