There were two major goals of this study: 1) examine the flight abilities of recently emerged adult chestnut weevil on a tether-based flight mill; and 2) determine the adult emergence patterns using modified pecan weevil traps. Female chestnut weevils were able to sustain a mean longer flight than males, although both sexes were shown to be capable of producing flight durations longer than one hour. Trends in emergence data indicate a biannual emergence pattern (peaking in May and August), with the largest emergence occurring around mid- to late September, which correlates with maximal nut production.
