Habitat Preferences of Agrilus angustulus Through Different Life Stages
The eggs of agrilus angustulus are typically laid in crevices of tree bark. Larvae are found underneath the bark or within the wood of dying or recently dead trees, especially in the sapwood. In search of pupation sites, the larvae create chambers in the wood they infest. Adult agrilus angustulus are often seen on or around their host trees, feeding on leaves or bark. To find these various stages, one must look closely at the host trees' bark for eggs, peel back layers of bark for larvae, seek out pupation chambers within the wood, and observe the foliage and surface of trees for adults.
Rectangle
When is the Best Time to Observe Agrilus angustulus
The best time to find adult agrilus angustulus is during their active season which is typically late spring to summer. Larval stages can be found year-round under the bark of trees, but are best observed during warmer months when they are most active.
Rectangle
What is the Best Weather to Observe Agrilus angustulus
Look for agrilus angustulus on warm, sunny days when they are most likely to be active. Adults are especially drawn to sunlight and may be found on the sunny side of trees or plants.

How and Where Can You Find Agrilus angustulus at Different Life Stages
Egg Eggs of agrilus angustulus are often laid in bark crevices on host plants. To find them, inspect trees for unusual patterns or tiny structures in the bark that may indicate the presence of eggs.
Larva Agrilus angustulus larvae are wood-boring and often create tunnels beneath the bark of their host plants. Look for signs of infestation like sap flow, frass, or bark that appears stripped or damaged. Peeling back loose bark may reveal the larvae beneath.
Pupal Pupal cases of agrilus angustulus may be found within the wood of the host plants where larvae have been feeding. Locate pupae by following larval tunnels to chambered areas in the wood, often close to the surface.
Adult Adult agrilus angustulus can be seen on the trunks and branches of host plants and are often found sunning themselves. They may be located by visually scanning for their shiny, metallic bodies, or by using a net to sweep over vegetation where they might be feeding or resting.

Forestry Pest

Agrilus angustulus's larvae bore into stems, disrupting nutrient flow, while adults chew on foliage. Mild attacks result in leaf wilt and minor stem damage; severe infestations can lead to dieback and plant death, affecting ecosystem balance and potentially forestry economies.

Hurt Plant

Agrilus angustulus larvae bore into stems disrupting nutrient flow, while adults feed on leaves. Infestation can lead to wilting, dieback, and in severe cases, plant death.
