, 2018
Pediobius chylizae, spec. nov. (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae), is described as new and illustrated. This parasitoid has been reared from the puparia of Chyliza apicalis Loew (Diptera: Psilidae) collected from under the bark of ash trees (Oleaceae: Fraxinus ...

Evaluating Syrphid Fly Predation on Aphids Under Controlled and Field Conditions in High Tunnels: A Comparative Study With Lacewings

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biological control in high tunnel systems can be optimised by matching predator species to seasonal environmental conditions. We evaluated the predatory efficacy of syrphid flies (Toxomerus marginatus (Say), Eupeodes americanus (Fabricius)) and lacewings (Chrysoperla carnea (Stephens), Chrysoperla rufilabris (Burmeister)) across laboratory ...

Impacts Of The Invasive FourEyed Fir Bark Beetle (Polygraphus Proximus Blandf.) On Siberian Fir (Abies Sibirica Ledeb.) Forests In Southern Siberia

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2019
The emergence and spread of non-native invasive forest insects represent a major potential threat to global biodiversity. The present study examines the current invasion of the far eastern four-eyed fir bark beetle Polygraphus proximus Blandf.

Therapeutic Bark Gouging as an Effective Complement for the Management of Ips typographus and Pityogenes chalcographus While Preserving Habitat for Secondary Scolytine (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) Species

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Norway spruce will likely remain an important tree species in Europe over the next few decades despite efforts to transform forests and reduce its distribution range more to its natural range. Consequently, Ips typographus will remain one of the most relevant forest pests the management of which will become increasingly challenging due to ...

Kernel-Based Early Detection of Forest Bark Beetle Attack Using Vegetation Indices Time Series of Sentinel-2

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus L.) is a biotic disturbance that devastates forest environmental services, and its activities are exacerbated due to climate change. Accordingly, researchers seek workflows using remote sensing imagery for

Taming the waterways: The Europeanization of Southern Québec's riverside landscapes during the 16th–18th centuries [PDF]

, 2018
The arrival of Europeans in the New World effected the interaction of 2 temperate biogeographical eco-zones: the Palaearctic and Nearctic. Alfred Crosby has hypothesized that the success of the Europeans as imperialists was due, in part, to the ability ...

Analysing the Ecological Requirements of the Australian Tortoise Beetle Trachymela sloanei (Blackburn, 1897) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) to Determine the Prospects for Its Invasion Process

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Invasive species pose a serious threat to biodiversity and result in significant economic costs. Although much effort is devoted to understanding invasive processes, some aspects are poorly understood, such as the early stages of invasions and the reasons for invasion failure.

Early Detection of Bark Beetle Green Attack Using TerraSAR-X and RapidEye Data

Remote Sensing, 2013
Bark beetles cause widespread damages in the coniferous-dominated forests of central Europe and North America. In the future, areas affected by bark beetles may further increase due to climate change. However, the early detection of the bark beetle green

Whole Genome Assembly and Annotation of Two Invasive Sitona Species

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Weevils are a highly diversified taxon, comprising about 70,000 described species, including many of high economic importance. Here, we present whole genome assemblies and annotations of two Sitona species (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Entiminae).

Establishing Baseline Information for the Risk of Flatheaded Borer Attack in Specialty Tree Crops Using Trapping and On‐Farm Surveys

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flatheaded borers (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) are largely xylophagous insects. Larvae of flatheaded borers tunnel into the trunks of trees, with boring and feeding damage eventually appearing on the surface as discolored bark, sunken areas, bark splits or bark sloughing.
