Risk of bark beetle (Coleoptera, Scolytidae) damage in a spruce forest restoration area in central Finland

Silva Fennica, 2008
A beetle inventory using window traps was performed to examine the effect of forest restoration by artificial addition of dead wood on the abundance of beetles and to evaluate the risk of bark beetle damage in a forest restoration area.

Cambioxylophagous fauna of young spruce stands damaged by snow in the Beskids

Journal of Forest Science, 2007
In 25 to 40-years-old stands damaged by snow in the Beskids, the fauna of cambioxylophages was analyzed both on standing breaks and lying break-off stems.

Evolutionary ecology of the bark beetlesIps typographusandPityogenes chalcographus

Bulletin of Entomological Research, 2022
AbstractIps typographus(L.) andPityogenes chalcographus(L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) are two common bark beetle species on Norway spruce in Eurasia. Multiple biotic and abiotic factors affect the life cycles of these two beetles, shaping their ecology and evolution. In this article, we provide a comprehensive and comparative summary of selected life-

Identifizierung von Haplotypen bei Pityogenes chalcographus (Col., Scolytidae) durch SSCP [PDF]

, 2008
Pityogenes chalcographus is a widely distributed spruce pest in Eurasia (KNIZEK et al. 2005). In 70ies, E. Führer studied the intraspecific variation of this spruce bark beetle and detected race differentiation among European populations based on ...

Automatic traps foster the monitoring and prediction of bark beetle swarming

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.
Automated trap data help bark beetle management to act more timely and targeted, thereby facilitating an effective mitigation of outbreaks. Moreover, the immediate data transmission makes regular manual trap collections unnecessary. While swarming models cannot quantify absolute trap catches without site‐ and trap‐specific calibration, they provide ...

First Report of Sydowia polyspora Causing Current Season Needle Necrosis on Abies grandis in Sweden

Forest Pathology, Volume 56, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Current season needle necrosis (CSNN) is a conifer foliar disease and a particular problem for Christmas tree plantations, as it causes necrosis and premature foliage shedding, resulting in significant economic and aesthetic devaluation. In September 2022, CSNN symptoms were detected on 10‐year‐old Abies grandis trees at a plantation located ...

Repellent Effects of Host Essential Oils and Limited Effects of Host Length on Tree‐Killing Bark Beetle Attacks

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 174, Issue 1, Page 37-44, January 2026.
This study demonstrated that the host essential oil significantly reduced Polygraphus proximus Blandford (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) attack density, but the density did not differ significantly among logs of various lengths of Abies sachalinensis. Our study suggests that host essential oils can perform as repellents against conifer‐infesting bark beetles.

Survey of predators associated with bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) with redescription of Platysoma rimarium Erichson, 1834 from Kashmir, India

Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2018
The bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) are widely recognized as one of the most damaging groups of forest pests. The present article documents the insect predators associated with bark beetles infesting blue pine, Pinus wallichiana A. B.

New eurytomid parasitoids of bark beetles in pine plantations in Ihtimanska Sredna Gora Mountains, Bulgaria

Historia Naturalis Bulgarica
In 2020, five eurytomid species were found for first time on bark beetles in Pinus sylvestris plantations in Ihtimanska Sredna Gora Mountains in Bulgaria: Eurytoma afra Boheman, 1836, Eurytoma arctica Thomson, 1875, Eurytoma morio Boheman, 1836, Eurytoma
