“…Studies on the population genetics of established H. halys in North America strongly suggest that the invasion consists of one dominant haplotype originating in the Beijing/ Hebei regions of China Xu et al 2014). Further, the Canadian population is likely derived from movement of the already-established population in north eastern USA ).…”

The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), has emerged as a harmful invasive insect pest in North America and Europe in the 1990s and 2000s, respectively. Native to eastern Asia, this highly polyphagous pest ([120 different host plants) is spreading rapidly worldwide, notably through human activities. The increasing global importance of the pest suggests that more coordinated actions are needed to slow its spread and mitigate negative effects in invaded areas. Prevention of large-scale outbreaks will require accurate identification and effective mitigation tools to be rapidly developed and widely implemented. In this short review, we update the current distribution of H. halys, discuss potential geographic range expansion based on passive and active dispersal and provide insight on the economic, environmental and social impact associated with H. halys.

“…A decade after its introduction into the United States in 1999, the economically destructive brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys Stål (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae), has been detected in 39 US states and the District of Columbia, as well as Canada, Switzerland, Germany, France, and Italy, and has been intercepted in New Zealand (Xu et al 2013). BMSB has an extraordinarily wide host range in both its native range (Asia) and invaded countries where it feeds on over 200 species of tree fruits, vegetables, field crops, ornamental plants, and native vegetation (Hoebeke and Carter 2003;Leskey et al 2012).…”

“…Xu et al (2013) determined that a single introduction to North America from the Beijing area of China, with secondary migration to the West Coast, is responsible for the presence of this destructive pest. Due to the difficulty and potential non-target effects of controlling this pest with pesticides, foreign exploration of natural enemies of BMSB began in earnest in 2008, with the Beijing area of China as a focal point of collections, followed by additional collecting in South Korea and Japan (Xu et al 2013). These collections have identified two species with potential as classical biological control agents.…”

Trissolcus japonicus (Ashmead) and T. cultratus (Mayr), comb. rev. are under study as classical biological agents to control the brown marmorated stink bug Halyomorpha halys (Stål) in North America. Here we present diagnoses for all Nearctic species of Trissolcus, including T. japonicus and T. cultratus comb. rev., and identification keys to enable separation of these species from the existing fauna. Trissolcus cultratus comb. rev. is removed from synonymy with T. flavipes. Two new species are described, Trissolcus valkyria sp. n. and T. zakotos sp. n. A neotype is designated for T. brochymenae and a lectotype is designated for T. basalis.

“…Initial genetic comparisons detected low diversity among BMSB populations in the United States (i.e., representative insect specimens from 10 states, including California) compared to BMSB populations in Asia and identified Beijing, China, as the likely origin of BMSB populations in the United States (Xu et al 2014). Follow-up molecular work being led by U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) researchers is adding further resolution to the invasion origins of BMSB in the United States.…”

B rown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Stål) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae), has a native range that includes China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Its host plant range extends to more than 170 species, among which are valuable ornamentals and agricultural fruit, nut and vegetable crops (Lee et al. 2013;Rice et al. 2014). BMSB can cause direct injury to crops while using its piercing-sucking mouthparts to feed. Characterization of feeding injury to marketable crops such as surface discoloration, depressed areas, deformation or abortion of fruit bodies and internal tissue damage can vary by crop (Rice et al. 2014). BMSB was first detected in the United States in 1996 in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Since then, BMSB has been detected in 42 U.S. states, with establishment (reproduction) confirmed in at least 26 states where nuisance and/or agricultural problems associated with its presence and ensuing economic losses to crops have been reported (NIPMC 2015).Crop losses from BMSB and aggregations in human-made structures have been significant in the eastern United States, where BMSB first established (Rice et al. 2014). The establishment of BMSB in this region confirms its tolerance to climates outside of its home range. Field and laboratory research is needed to characterize the degree to which BMSB can tolerate temperature stresses (i.e., winter cold and summer heat) and how this may influence population dynamics in other geographic locations within the United States (Cira et al. 2016). In addition, the invasion process of BMSB in the United Online: http://californiaagriculture.ucanr.edu/ landingpage.cfm?article=ca.v070n01p15&fulltext=yes doi: 10.3733/ca.v070n01p15Mike Lewis BMSB adult feeding on kumquat fruit. In California, BMSB populations are found mainly in urban locales, but there is risk they will move into agricultural areas.
