Figures<br />

Figure 2-1 World Distribution <strong>of</strong> A) Dendrolimus sibiricus and B) Dendrolimus<br />

superans. Maps obtained from the European Plant Protection<br />

Organization database 2-9<br />

Figure 2-2 NAPPFAST Risk Map for Establishment Potential Based on Climatic<br />

Suitability <strong>of</strong> the PTL in the Conterminous United States<br />

(map created by Jessica Engels, Roger Magarey and Dan Borchart;<br />

<strong>US</strong>DA-APHIS-PPQ, Raleigh, NC). The NAPPFAST risk<br />

map describes the relative climatic suitability (on a scale <strong>of</strong> 1-<br />

10) for a pest to grow and survive. The maps are based on 10years<br />

<strong>of</strong> daily data from NAPPFAST. A value <strong>of</strong> one represents<br />

a low likelihood <strong>of</strong> pest growth and survival, while a 10 indicates<br />

high likelihood <strong>of</strong> pest growth and survival. 2-11<br />

Figure 2-3 Life cycle <strong>of</strong> Dendrolimus pini illustrating the observed presence<br />

and timing <strong>of</strong> different stages throughout the typical calendar<br />

year. Vertical lines with a W indicate break in the calendar for<br />

winter months when the larvae are not actively feeding. Arrows<br />

indicate the migration <strong>of</strong> larvae down to the forest floor or returning<br />

up into the tree canopy. White boxes with numbers indicate<br />

the instar number <strong>of</strong> overwintering larvae. Adult emergence,<br />

mating and egg laying is approximated with a butterfly icon on<br />

the calendar. 2-18<br />

Figure 2-4 Life cycle <strong>of</strong> Dendrolimus punctatus illustrating the observed<br />

presence and timing <strong>of</strong> different stages throughout the typical<br />

calendar year. Illustration legend follows Figure 2-3, except<br />

overwintering period is indicated completely across the calendar<br />

in this figure instead <strong>of</strong> abbreviated. Lighter lines indicate<br />

successive generations, indicating the possibility that overlapping<br />

generations might be present in the same population. 2-<br />

Figure 2-5 Life cycle <strong>of</strong> Dendrolimus sibiricus illustrating the observed<br />

presence and timing <strong>of</strong> different stages throughout the typical<br />

calendar year, following conventions used in Fig. 2-3. 2-22<br />

Figure 2-6 Life cycle <strong>of</strong> Dendrolimus superans illustrating the observed<br />

presence and timing <strong>of</strong> different stages throughout the typical<br />

calendar year, following conventions used in Fig. 2-3. Moths<br />

that overwinter once have a 2 season life cycle, while some<br />

moths overwinter twice and diapause in the summer, resulting<br />

in a three season life cycle. 2-23<br />
