Hemlock woolly adelgid in the southern Appalachians: Control strategies, ecological impacts, and potential management responses (2013, background): “sieboldii, native to southern Japan and the same host species that the HWA of eastern North American originates from (Havill et al., 2006)) may exhibit tolerance to HWA (Montgomery, 2009).”
Experimentally testing the role of foundation species in forests: the Harvard Forest Hemlock Removal Experiment (2010, background): “The hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae; Hemiptera: Adelgidae) is a small (<1-mm-long adult) flightless insect that was introduced to the United States from Japan in the early 1950s (Havill et al. 2006; Havill & Foottit 2007).”
Live plant imports: the major pathway for forest insect and pathogen invasions of the US (2012, background): “Adelges tsugae Hemlock woolly adelgid Hemiptera: Adelgidae plants Wealthy person near Richmond, Virginia, planted infested hemlock from Japan in his garden (Stoetzel 2002; Havill et al. 2006)”
Role of winter temperature and climate change on the survival and future range expansion of the hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) in eastern North America (2008, background): “The adelgid was accidentally introduced to Virginia from Osaka, Japan in the early 1950s (Souto et al. 1996; Havill et al. 2006).”
Ecological effects of invasive alien insects (2008, background): “Indeed, most studies focused on the genetic structure of insect invaders (Tsutsui and Case 2001; Lee 2002), especially with the aim of tracing their origin (Scheffer and Grissell 2003; Grapputo et al. 2005; Havill et al. 2006).”
Direct and indirect effects of alien insect herbivores on ecological processes and interactions in forests of eastern North America (2010, background): “…of balsam woolly adelgid and North American firs (Witter and Ragenovich 1986), beech scale and North American beeches (Houston 1987), hemlock woolly adelgid and eastern North American hemlocks (Havill et al. 2006), and emerald ash borer and North American ashes (Fraxinus spp.) (Rebek et al. 2008).”
Hybridization between a native and introduced predator of Adelgidae: an unintended result of classical biological control. (2012, background): “The hemlock woolly adelgid, Adelges tsugae Annand, was introduced from Japan to the eastern United States (Havill et al., 2006) some time before its discovery in Virginia in the early 1950s.”
Classical biological control for the protection of natural ecosystems (2010, background): “The Chinese parasitoid Torymus sinensis reduced galling to non-pest levels in Japan (Moriya et al., 2003) and the USA (Cooper and Rieske, 2007).”
