View Dr. Rob Clark’s presentation on the impact of invasive insects in Connecticut forests on YouTube.

Presented by Rob Clark, Ph.D. – Research Scientist, Great Hollow Nature Preserve and Ecological Research Center; Affiliate Faculty, Washington State University

Insects are profoundly important for the health of forest ecosystems, but ecosystems can go awry when humans unintentionally introduce invasive species. What causes invasive species to be so “bad”? What do we know about invasives found in Connecticut forests? Join Rob Clark for a Zoom seminar on March 5th at 4 pm. This online seminar will include Q&A about invasives like woolly adelgid, gypsy moth, emerald ash borer, spotted lanternfly, and tree diseases like beech blister and beech leaf disease. Bring all your questions!

This event was co-sponsored by the Cornwall Conservation Trust, the Cornwall Conservation Commission, the Cornwall Association, and the Cornwall Library.
