“…The formation of overwintering aggregations is mediated by complicated combinations of various factors (Watanabe et al, 1994a;Nalepa et al, 2000). This study indicates that a mutual stimulus plays an important role in the last process of this aggregate formation as a cue that induces bugs to remain there.…”

“…It is necessary to include a reference to the relationship between temperature and the formation and maintenance of overwintering aggregations in fields. Watanabe (1994a) observed that diapausing bugs did not completely retreat and form aggregations immediately after arriving at overwintering sites, and suggested that a fall in temperature is responsible for keeping themselves still in retreats. In addition, disintegration of the overwintering aggregation in spring is accompanied by an increase in temperature.…”

We examined whether stimuli among one another are involved in the short-range locations of the Halyomorpha halys adult, which often forms aggregations when overwintering. Ten diapausing adults were released into a clear container at 10°C. After a certain time period, their distribution was compared with a random distribution, and a tendency for a strong concentrated distribution with crowding was observed under both light and dark conditions. However, antennectomy prevented bugs from aggregating and this clarified the role of antenna in short-range locations. This finding suggests that overwintering aggregation in H. halys is guided by a chemical or tactile interaction among individuals, at least within a narrow range. In addition, the relationship between this aggregation habit and temperature was examined. Although temperatures of 15°C and 20°C caused bugs to become active, the habit of settling close to one another was not reduced. Based on these results, we inferred that the aggregation habit of H. halys adults itself is not temperature dependent, and that the overwintering aggregation is caused by an increase in opportunity for contact with each other, such as from a mutual preference for the overwintering environment, and a decrease in behavioral activity resulting from a decrease in temperature.

“…BMSB is a significant nuisance to homeowners and businesses because they will utilize attics, garages, offices, and other buildings to overwinter (Watanabe et al 1994, Hoebeke & Carter 2003, Hamilton 2009, Inkley 2012). This problem is exacerbated in rural areas where forests and agricultural fields provide suitable habitat for BMSB to reproduce during the growing season.…”

Pest Status of the Brown Marmorated Stink Bug, Halyomorpha Halys in the USA

Since its initial discovery in Allentown, PA, USA, the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), Halyomorpha halys (Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) has now officially has been detected in 38 states and the District of Columbia in the USA. Isolated populations also exist in Switzerland and Canada. This Asian species quickly became a major nuisance pest in the mid-Atlantic USA region due to its overwintering behavior of entering structures. BMSB has an extremely wide host range in both its native home and invaded countries where it feeds on numerous tree fruits, vegetables, field crops, ornamental plants, and native vegetation. In 2010, populations exploded causing severe crop losses to apples, peaches, sweet corn, peppers, tomatoes and row crops such as field corn and soybeans in several midAtlantic states. Damaging populations were detected in vineyards, small fruit and ornamentals. Researchers are collaborating to develop management solutions that will complement current integrated pest management programs. This article summarizes the current pest status and strategies being developed to manage BMSB in the USA.

“…In addition, dispersal capacity and behavior of H. halys have been examined in laboratory and field conditions and the results clearly indicate that this insect has a strong dispersal capacity at landscape levels (Lee et al 2013b;Wiman et al 2014). Previous studies addressing overwintering biology were limited to nuisance problems of H. halys in human-made structures (e.g., Inkley 2012;Watanabe et al 1994); however, a recent study documented and characterized natural overwintering sites used by H. halys for the first time in forested areas in the mid-Atlantic region (Lee et al 2014a). …”
