Divergent Trends in Insect Disturbance Across Europe's Temperate and Boreal Forests. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Across temperate and boreal Europe, tree mortality caused by insects has risen during the 21st century, yet interactions among insect species and their host trees are complex. While mortality from wood‐boring insects in conifers has increased, defoliation caused by multiple moth species has declined.

Negative impacts of insecticide-treated methods and slot traps for trapping of Ips cembrae on nontarget invertebrates. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
The negative impacts of using insecticide‐treated methods and slot traps against Ips cembrae were evaluated. Negative impacts on predator species of bark beetles such as Thanasimus formicarius and Red‐Listed species were described. Abstract BACKGROUND Ips cembrae is serious forest pest of European larch (Larix decidua).

Gradacija smrčinih potkornjaka na području Han Pijeska

Glasnik Šumarskog Fakulteta Univerziteta u Banjoj Luci, 2018
Rad se bavi utvrđivanjem brojnosti smrčinih potkornjaka (Ips typographus L., i Pityogenes chalcographus L.) i njihovom značaju u pojavi sušenja smrče, na području Han Pijeska. Smrča na ovom području ima veliki privredni i ekološki značaj.

Objective risk assessment of bark and ambrosia beetles non-indigenous to North America. [PDF]

Ecol Appl
Abstract Pest risk assessment informs regulatory decisions to facilitate safe trade while also protecting a country's agricultural and environmental resources. The first step in pest risk assessment is pest categorization which can help determine whether an in‐depth examination is needed.

Wood decomposition is increased by insect diversity, selection effects, and interactions between insects and microbes

Ecology, Volume 104, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Biodiversity drives ecosystem processes, but its influence on deadwood decomposition is poorly understood. To test the effects of insect diversity on wood decomposition, we conducted a mesocosm experiment manipulating the species richness and functional diversity of beetles.

Spatial distribution of saproxylic beetles on trunks of standing Scots pine trees

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 25, Issue 4, Page 601-611, November 2023., 2023
Abstract The spatial distribution of saproxylic beetles landing and climbing stems of 12 grown and healthy Scots pine trees (Pinus sylvestris L.) was examined in detail during a 3‐year trial. The beetles were sampled using sticky traps attached to the tree trunk at three tree parts (i.e., the trunk base, middle part of the trunk, and trunk in crown ...

Understanding the Coleoptera community at the tree‐line using taxonomic and functional guild approaches

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 25, Issue 4, Page 669-680, November 2023., 2023
Understanding the effects of elevation and other forest characteristics on saproxylic and non‐saproxylic Coleoptera is a step towards predicting the future of functional group and taxonomic biodiversity at the tree‐line and on mountains. Our results suggest that abundance of saprotrophs is closely linked to the density of large trees rather than the ...

Species of Bursaphelenchus Fuchs, 1937 (Nematoda: Parasitaphelenchidae) and other nematode genera associated with insects from Pinus pinaster in Portugal [PDF]

, 2006
Insects associated with maritime pine, Pinus pinaster, in Portugal were collected and screened for the presence of Bursaphelenchus species. Nematodes were identified using Internal Transcribed Spacers-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (ITS-RFLP ...
