Lycorma delicatula (White, 1845) - (spotted lanternfly)
This lanternfly is polyphagous and invasive in Korea as well as in North America. It is native to northern China and has been reported from South Korea since 2004 and from north-eastern North America since 2014. The infested areas in North America are under quarantine. High densities of the planthoppers cause wilting and considerable honeydew resulting in sooty mould. The host plants include various forest trees and a number of crops like grapes and fruit trees. In addition, the invasive tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima) is a preferred hostplant by the lanternfly (e.g. Murman et al., 2020).
The adults can be easily recognized by their colourful wings. They lay eggs in autumn which hatch in the spring. Development goes through 4 instars. The first 3 nymphal stages are black with lighter spots and the last one red with black marks.
