Polyploid spermatozoa in Pityogenes chalcographus and Ips typographus (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) [PDF]
Abnormal spermatogenesis in Pityogenes chalcographus (L.) and Ips typographus (L.) results in oversized spermatozoa in all the populations investigated. They can be identified by light microscopy and classified as 2n up to 16n polyploid.

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

Climate‐driven tree growth and mortality in the Black Forest, Germany—Long‐term observations
This study describes climate‐driven tree mortality and tree growth in the Black Forest mountain range in Germany. It is based on a 68‐year consistent data series describing the annual mortality of all trees growing in a forest area of almost 250 thousand ha. The climatic water balance is identified as the main driver of mortality and tree growth.

Evolutionary ecology of the bark beetlesIps typographusandPityogenes chalcographus
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-
