Question

Answer

Dear K., The insect in the picture is Aphrophora salicina, the willow spittlebug. It is a common species found on willows near streams and rivers. The immature stages secrete a frothy, saliva-like substance that protects them from predators. You can find more information about this species on our website: https://www.forestpests.eu/pest/aphrophora-salicina Best regards, M. Zúbrik

veľký asi 5 mm, lesklý. Nosánik?

Answer

Dobrý deň, ďakujeme za Váš dotaz. Áno, jedná sa o nejakého zástupcu Curculionidae. Tieto druhy najmä na jar vyhrýzajú do listov malé dierky a tým ich poškodzujú. Obyčajne poškodenie nebýva silné a je skôr estetickým problémom. S pozdravom. M. Zúbrik

Question

Answer

Zdravím, na fotkách sú podľa mňa 2 problémy: 1. Hnednutie ihlíc od svojho hrotu - bud sucho, alebo imisie (asi nie) alebo popálené pri nejakom postreku 2. Točenie a odumieranie niektorých vetvičiek, zhutňovanie ihlíc okolo vetvičky - voška Dreyfusia nordmannianae. Túto vošku treba postriekať insekticídom. Bude sa asi jej výskyt opakovať aj napriek striekaniu. AK.
