This includes gypsy moth (1990-1993), hemlock looper (1990-1993), browntail moth (1994-1997) and spruce budworm (compiled by the Maine Forest Service from maps, reports and/or the 1997 David Weed report for various years back to 1918). This dataset is archived as delivered by the Maine Forest Service in October of 2016.
