This is an invasive insect from eastern Asia. It's been on the radar screen of foresters and arborists for awhile.

What you'd see on the underside of a branch:


If you find evidence of an adelgid colony, contact the UNH Co-op and let them know what you see.

Hopefully, what you are seeing is the result of an isolated stressor such as road salt or a localized trauma.

Eureka, you hit it. It has been around now for 4 or 5 years but in different areas and for some reason has disappeared from areas that has been seen in. They say it can be very destructive. Let us it isn't that fungus.
