Wanted: Locust Leafminer
Last Known Area:
Date of Release Unknown
Black Locust Tree
-Many black locust trees have already fallen victim to the Locust Leafminer
-Adults skeletonize and eat holes in the leaves of the trees, but the actual damage is minimal
-There is generally no need to contain this species, except in contained situations like parks and reserves
-In these situations containment is needed becuase the preservation of trees is important to the area
-Many other types of trees play host to this bug, such as: oak, borch, elm, apple, etc.
-This is what Locust Leafminers do to the leaves of their host trees
Crimes:
If you have any information on this species in a contained area, such as a park or national reserve, contact your local park ranger so they can deal with the problem
