Abstract

Cottonwood leaf beetle -- Control -- Northwest, Pacific. Poplar -- Diseases and pests -- Northwest, Pacific.
Large moncultures of Populus spp. grown for pulp, nonstructural timber, or biofuels are commonly attacked by Chrysomela scripta. Integrated pest management (IPM) professionals in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) need to be able to identify leaf beetle damage, prepare a monitoring program, and develop a management protocol to prevent or remedy an outbreak of this pest.
