This mite induces downward rolling of leaves with reddening (see arrow in the photo below).

It has now been reformatted to be easier to read, less technical, and more in-tune to our stakeholders' needs. In this edition, topics range from overviews of the outstanding work being accomplished at each of the four overseas laboratories to summaries of specific research endeavors. These include specifics on attempts to develop environmental sound management strategies for the control of invasive insect species including the roseau cane scale, little fire ant, Bagrada bug, and cattle fever ticks as well as invasive plants including water hyacinth, hydrilla, Medusahead, and tree-of-heaven.
