In the photo: Thinned larch crowns at the periphery of the Siberian moth outbreak foci.
Larch is rather resistant to defoliation. At the early- summer damaging trees by Siberian moth larvae the new “secondary” needles usually grows by August. However, the repeated defoliation weakens trees, and when coinciding with drought (or fire), is harmful for trees.
