Forecasting global spread of invasive pests and pathogens through international trade
Ecosphere, 2023 Non‐native plant pests and pathogens threaten biodiversity, ecosystem function, food security, and economic livelihoods. As new invasive populations establish, often as an unintended consequence of international trade, they can become additional sources ...

Review of the clavatus group of the lanternfly genus Pyrops (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Fulgoridae)
European Journal of Taxonomy, 2017 The clavatus group of Pyrops Spinola, 1839 is reviewed and redefined. The new combination Pyrops atroalbus (Distant, 1918) comb. nov. is proposed, as atroalbus is reinstated as a full species from status of subspecies of Pyrops watanabei (Matsumura, 1913)

A method to quantify jump dispersal of invasive species from occurrence data: the case of the spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula [PDF]
NeoBiotaThe accuracy of predicting the spread of biological invasions is improved if models explicitly incorporate the two main dispersal mechanisms: diffusive spread and jump dispersal.

Evidence of Pheromone Use in a Fulgorid, Spotted Lanternfly
Forests, 2022 The spotted lanternfly, Lycorma delicatula (Hemiptera: Fulgoridae) is a polyphagous, phloem-feeding invasive forest, agricultural, and nuisance pest that is rapidly spreading through the U.S. Little is known about how fulgorids locate each other to mate.

Iflaviruses in arthropods: when small is mighty
Insect Science, EarlyView.Many arthropod species harbor iflaviruses, which often cause covert (asymptomatic) infections, but may still affect host fitness. We review the impact of iflaviruses on arthropod fitness, immunity, behaviour as well as the iflavirus’ host range, transmission, tissue tropism and the interactions with other microorganisms within arthropods.
