Abstract
Anoplophora glabripennis (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae: Lamiinae), commonly known as the Asian longhorned beetle, is a wood-boring invasive species introduced from Asia to North America and Europe through solid wood packing material. A. glabripennis is a serious pest both in China and the United States. This research project was developed in response to the need for efficient monitoring traps to assess population density and dispersal in the field and to detect new introductions at ports of entry.
