Cover Story: This case study aimed to evaluate the impact of natural defoliation produced by Clostera anastomosis L. (Lepidoptera: Notodontidae) on the growth and mortality of defoliated trees in a hybrid poplar short rotation culture (AF8 clone) in northeastern Romania. Thus, the attack of this pest led to the loss of about 70% of the above-ground biomass estimated to be accumulated in the year of defoliation and to the death of about 29% of the affected poplar trees.
