The role of pheromones and temporal mechanisms in the reproductive isolation of Monochamus maculosus, Monochamus notatus, and Monochamus scutellatus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae). [PDF]
Environ EntomolAbstract The mechanisms used to facilitate mate location among insects—such as pheromones—can inhibit interspecific attraction and confer reproductive isolation. However, pheromone components seem conserved within the genus Monochamus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) with the compound 2-(undecyloxy)ethanol (referred to as monochamol) being ...

Modeling the distribution of pine wilt disease in China using the ensemble models MaxEnt and CLIMEX [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionPine wilt disease (PWD) is a devastating plant disease caused by the pinewood nematode (PWN, Bursaphelenchus xylophilus) that is transmitted by several beetle species in the genus, Monochamus. Once present, the disease is difficult to control. Prevention
