Spotted Lanternfly — “Worst Invasive Species in 150 Years” — has Landed in Hell’s Kitchen


 

When the Spotted Lanternfly arrived in Pennsylvania from China, NPR reported that it could be the worst invasive species in the United States in 150 Years. Yesterday, it was spotted in Hell’s Kitchen for the first time — after reported sightings in the Upper West Side and Central Park earlier in the week.

The first Hell’s Kitchen sighting was at 610 W58th Street between 11th/12th Avenue yesterday just before 2pm. The insect was climbing on the outside of the building and briefly showed its bright red inner wing before walking up the side of the luxury tower.
