Polygonum cuspidatum NATIVE RANGE: Eastern Asia DESCRIPTION: Japanese knotweed, a member of the buckwheat family (Polygonaceae), is an upright, shrublike, herbaceous perennial that can grow to over 10 feet in height. As with all members of this family, the base of the stem above each joint is surrounded by a membranous sheath. Stems of Japanese knotweed are smooth, stout and swollen at joints where the leaf meets the stem. Although leaf size may vary, they are normally about 6 inches long by 3 to 4 inches wide, broadly oval to somewhat triangular and pointed at the tip. The minute greenish-white flowers occur in attractive, branched sprays in summer and are followed soon after by small winged fruits. Seeds are triangular, shiny, and very small, about 1/10 inch long. Japanese knotweed is designated a noxious weed in the State of Washington. ECOLOGICAL THREAT: Japanese knotweed spreads quickly to form dense thickets that exclude native vegetation and greatly alter natural ecosystems. It poses a significant threat to riparian areas, where it can survive severe floods and is able to rapidly colonize scoured shores and islands. Once established, populations are extremely persistent. DISTRIBUTION IN THE UNITED STATES: Current distribution of Japanese knotweed includes 36 states in the lower 48 from Maine to Wisconsin south to Louisiana, and scattered midwest and western states. It is not currently known to occur in Hawaii. Click

Ips pine bark beetle Order Coleoptera G. Keith Douce , Associate Professor of Entomology, The University of Georgia Order Coleoptera: Family Scolytidae Importance Ips beetles are commonly found throughout the South. They usually attack injured or stressed trees, freshly felled trees or logging slash. Infestations are frequently initiated in trees stressed by lightning, logging injury or fire damage. Ips beetles usually attack and kill only one-to-a-few trees in a location. However, in areas in which trees have undergone severe drought stress, ice or wind/hail damage, they frequently buildup large populations and may kill large numbers of trees. Ips beetles are second only to the southern pine beetle in the number of trees killed by southern forest insects. Hosts: Ips beetles attack the major pine species grown in the South. Evidence: Depending upon which of the four Ips Ips pitch tubes are ½ inch-or-less in diameter are formed as resin exuded as a defense against the beetles boring through the tree bark hardens.
