“…Halyomorpha halys frugivory has the potential to reduce sugar content while increasing phenolic content; follow-up studies are needed to determine whether humans can perceive these changes. Our study also shows that H. halys avoids feeding on fruit previously injured by conspecifics, which may lead to increased spread of injury, as well as disease infections (Jones and Lambdin 2009), to multiple fruits. Although H. halys has yet to be considered a major pest of blueberries in the United States, Wiman et al (2015) and this study show the potential of this insect to alter blueberry fruit quality, which may have important economic and ecological consequences.…”

“…It is also an urban nuisance due to its overwintering behavior: H. halys adults overwinter in homes (Leskey et al 2012). Both H. halys nymphs and adults pierce plant tissues with their mouthparts, inject saliva with digestive enzymes while feeding, and suck their nutrients, leading to necrotic spots on fruits and leaf surfaces (Leskey et al 2012, Rice et al 2014, Wiman et al 2015; this feeding behavior may result also in secondary infections (Jones and Lambdin 2009). Although H. halys can feed on most plant structures, such as leaves and stems, it primarily feeds on the fruits (Rice et al 2014).…”

Frugivory by Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) Alters Blueberry Fruit Chemistry and Preference by Conspecifics

The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Stål), is an invasive pest from Asia that feeds on many agricultural crops in the United States, including blueberries. Yet, the effects of H. halys feeding on fruit chemistry and induced resistance to insects remain unknown. Here we hypothesized that frugivory by H. halys changes fruit chemical composition, which in turn affects insect feeding behavior. In field experiments, blueberry fruit was either mechanically injured or injured by 0 (control), 2, 5, or 10 H. halys Total soluble solids (°Brix) and anthocyanin and phenolic content in injured and uninjured fruits, as well as their effects on feeding behavior by conspecifics, were measured subsequently in the laboratory. Results showed lower °Brix values in injured fruit as compared with uninjured fruit. Fruit injured by 2 and 5 H. halys also had 32 and 20% higher total phenolics, respectively, than the uninjured controls. The proportions of the anthocyanins derived from delphinidin, cyanidin, and petunidin increased, whereas those from malvidin decreased, in fruit after mechanical wounding and frugivory by H. halys In dual-choice tests, H. halys fed more often on uninjured fruit than those previously injured by conspecifics. These results show that frugivory by H. halys reduces the amounts of soluble solids, alters anthocyanin ratios, and increases levels of phenolics, and, as a result, injured fruits were a less preferred food source for conspecifics. To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the effects of frugivory on fruit chemistry and induced fruit resistance against a fruit-eating herbivore.

“…Halyomorpha halys is also known to transmit damaging phytoplasma diseases to ornamental tree and shrubs (Jones & Lambdin, ). Paulownia witches’ broom is one of the most important diseases transmitted by this bug, affecting more than 880 000 ha of Paulownia tomentosa trees intended for timber production in China and causing losses amounting to billions of dollars (Hiruki, ).…”

Halyomorpha halys, commonly known as the brown marmorated stink bug, has been recorded for the first time from the Maltese Islands. The record is currently based on the capture of a single specimen. Information is provided on the distribution range of this polyphagous species which was accidentally introduced into Europe (Switzerland) in 2007 and since then has invaded many European countries. Morphological details are also included to aid in the discrimination of this species from similar species occurring in the Mediterranean region. Notes are provided on the feeding strategies used by this insect and the type of damage incurred on agricultural commodities, which are often rendered unsaleable.

“…It was detected in 2005 in California, in items stored by a resident that had recently arrived from Pennsylvania (CDFA 2005 ) . It was intercepted in Florida, with no indication of establishment (Halbert 2009 ;Gyeltshen et al 2010 ) , and in 2009 it was collected in Tennessee (Jones and Lambdin 2009 ) . There have been isolated reports from Massachusetts and Ohio as well (Welty et al 2008 ) .…”
