Emerald Ash Borer Traces on Tree Trunk
High Resolution JPEG Picture of Traces of the emerald ash borer on the trunk of a dead ash in Michigan - like the death sentence for the tree, written under the bark; the emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis or Agrilus marcopoli) is a non-native invasive insect from Asia; the green beetle, accidentally introduced by overseas shipping containers into the USA, spread from Michigan through the Midwest and threatens to kill most of the ash trees in North America; shallow DOF
The image illustrates notable traces caused by the emerald ash borer on a dead tree trunk. The borer is a highly destructive invasive species that affects ash trees, and the patterns visible on the trunk serve as clear evidence of its presence. This photograph can be utilized in research, conservation efforts, and public awareness campaigns focusing on invasive species and environmental impact.
This image is suitable for a variety of applications, including educational materials, environmental reports, and conservation awareness campaigns. It can be used in presentations, infographics, websites, and social media posts to emphasize the importance of protecting native tree species. Additionally, it may serve as a visual aid in academic articles or workshops discussing the effects of invasive pests on ecosystems.
