Chrysanthemum lace bug

Chrysanthemum lace bug

Corythucha marmorata

A species of Corythucha

Just as its name suggests, the chrysanthemum lace bug uses many plants as its host, particularly chrysanthemums. This agricultural and horticultural pest can cause serious damage to host plants. This insect is extremely tiny and often mistaken for the two-spotted spider mite, but the chrysanthemum lace bug leaves yellowish spots on the foliage, and the mite doesn't.

Life Cycle of Chrysanthemum lace bug
Egg The egg stage of chrysanthemum lace bug begins with the insect laying eggs, often on the underside of leaves. The eggs are small and may vary in color depending on the species, camouflaged to avoid predation.
Nymph After hatching, chrysanthemum lace bug resembles a miniature version of the adult without wings. Nymphs undergo a series of molts, growing slightly after each. They may change color, become more robust, and start to develop wing buds.
Adult Reaching adulthood, chrysanthemum lace bug's wings are fully developed, allowing for flight. The adult typically has a different coloration from nymphs, aiding in mate recognition. Reproduction is now the focus, along with feeding.

Rectangle
Habitat Preferences of Chrysanthemum lace bug Through Different Life Stages
The eggs of chrysanthemum lace bug are typically deposited on the underside of leaves, often of the black locust or other host plants. Nymphs, resembling miniature adults but without fully developed wings, can also be found on the underside of leaves or on stems, where they feed on plant sap. Adult chrysanthemum lace bug frequently congregate on the leaves and stems but may also be seen on the bark of trees. When searching for these insects, careful examination of the host plants' foliage and bark is essential, particularly focusing on sheltered and less exposed areas which they favor for protection and feeding.

How and Where Can You Find Chrysanthemum lace bug at Different Life Stages
Egg Locate chrysanthemum lace bug eggs by examining the undersides of leaves of host plants. The eggs are small and often laid in groups, so check closely along the veins and at the base of the leaves.
Nymph Chrysanthemum lace bug nymphs go through several instars, gradually looking more like the adults. They are usually found on or under host plant leaves. Look for them by carefully inspecting the leaves and stems of potential host plants for small, moving insects.
Adult Adult chrysanthemum lace bug can be found on the foliage of host plants where they feed. To locate them, gently sweep net vegetation or observe the upper and lower surfaces of leaves, particularly on plants that are known to be their favorites.

Hurt Plant

When chrysanthemum lace bug infests sycamore trees, it targets the leaves and causes damage through its feeding behavior. By sucking plant fluids, the insect deprives the leaves of essential nutrients and water, leading to discoloration, wilting, and potentially premature leaf drop. This can reduce photosynthesis and weaken the plant overall.
