Emerald Ash Borer
Emerald Ash Borer (Agrilus planipennis Fairmaire)-Adults are slender, elongate and 7.5 to 13.5 mm long. Males are smaller than females and have fine hairs on the ventral side of the thorax, which the females lack. Color varies but adults are usually bronze or golden green overall, with darker, metallic, emerald green wing covers. The top of the abdomen under the wings is metallic purplish red and can be seen when the wings are spread. The prothorax, the segment behind the head to which the first pair of legs is attached, is slightly wider than the head but the same width as the base of the wing covers.
