Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis)

This page features illustrations of the Emerald Ash Borer in various formats such as png, svg, and ai. The Emerald Ash Borer, Agrilus planipennis, is a jewel beetle originally from north-eastern Asia. In its native habitat, it exists at low densities and does not pose a significant threat to local trees. However, as an invasive species outside its natural range, the Emerald Ash Borer is highly damaging to European and North American ash trees. The beetles primarily feed on ash trees, with females laying eggs in the tree bark where the larvae develop by feeding beneath the bark before maturing into adults.
