The Eastern Pine Shoot Borer (''Eucosma gloriola'') is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found from eastern Canada, south to Virginia, and west to Minnesota The wingspan is 14–16 mm.〔(Bug Guide )〕 The forewings are coppery red with two transverse grey bands. There is one generation per year. The larvae feed on ''Pinus'' species, mainly ''Pinus strobus'' and ''Pinus sylvestris''. First instar larvae enter shoots behind needle fascicles, boring directly into the pith. They initially feed downward toward the base of the shoots but later reverse direction. The frass is deposited on either end of the tunnel. Pupation takes place in a silken cocoon on the ground.〔(Pest Fact Sheets from Penn State and PDA - Eastern Pine Shoot Borer )〕 ==Gallery== Image:Eucosma_gloriola_damage.jpg|Damage Image:Eucosma_gloriola_damage1.jpg|Damage Image:Eucosma_gloriola_damage2.jpg|Damage 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eucosma gloriola」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
