Spotted Lanternflies
Tree covered in spotted lanternflies (Lycorma delicatula), near a streetlight in Reading, Pennsylvania, in August 2018. The spotted lanternfly is native to China and was first detected in Pennsylvania in 2014. It has since spread to several nearby states. It has the potential to become a major agricultural pest, feeding on the sap of a wide range of fruit, ornamental, and woody trees.
