The Apennines as a cryptic Pleistocene refugium of the bark beetle <i>Pityogenes chalcographus</i> (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). [PDF]
The Apennine Mountains in Italy are an important biogeographical region and of particular interest in phylogeographical research, because they have been a refugium during Pleistocene glaciation events for numerous European species. We performed a genetic

Reproductive Manipulators in the Bark Beetle Pityogenes chalcographus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)-The Role of Cardinium, Rickettsia, Spiroplasma, and Wolbachia. [PDF]
Heritable bacterial endosymbionts can alter the biology of numerous arthropods. They can influence the reproductive outcome of infected hosts, thus affecting the ecology and evolution of various arthropod species.

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.

Attractiveness of Picea pungens to the bark beetle species Ips amitinus (Eichh.) and Pityogenes chalcographus (L.) [PDF]
Only two cambioxylophagous species (Ips amitinus and Pityogenes chalcographus) were found on sections of Picea pungens and Picea abies that belong to economically important pests of Norway spruce. Representatives of the Isarthron sp.

The relationships between Pityogenes chalcographus and Nemosoma elongatum in clear-cuts with different types of management [PDF]
Pityogenes chalcographus (Linnaeus, 1758) is a significant pest of young spruce stands up to the age of about 20 years. Predation can be a significant part of decreasing its population density.

Mitochondrial phylogenies in the light of pseudogenes and Wolbachia: re-assessment of a bark beetle dataset [PDF]
Phylogenetic studies based on mtDNA become increasingly questioned because of potential pitfalls due to mitochondrial pseudgenes and mitochondrial selective sweeps.

Natural-history traits suspected behind interspecific variations of bark- and wood-boring beetles in response to trap size and design [PDF]
The performances of traps used for pest monitoring are not well understood. Variable trap sizes and shapes make cross-comparisons difficult. We tested with four Scolytinae species (Coleoptera, Curculionidae) a set of traps of the same model (fan-traps ...
