Investigating bark, ambrosia and nitidulid beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytinae and Nitidulidae) communities and their potential role in the movement of Ceratocystis manginecans in commercial forestry plantations in Riau, Indonesia

Beetles and beetle frass can harbour Ceratocystis propagules. The viability of the propagules and the ability of the beetles and/or beetle frass to spread C. manginecans requires further investigation. An interaction exists between infected trees and wood‐dwelling beetles, and this interaction differs between Acacia and Eucalyptus.
