Cold tolerance strategy and cold hardiness of the invasive zigzag elm sawfly Aproceros leucopoda (Hymenoptera: Argidae)

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 22, Issue 3, Page 231-237, August 2020., 2020
Abstract The invasive sawfly Aproceros leucopoda causes severe defoliation of various elm species and thus can be a major pest in forest stands and urban environments. The overwintering biology of A. leucopoda has not been investigated so far; therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the cold tolerance strategy and cold hardiness of ...

Chemical thinning in blue spruce (Picea pungens Engelm.) stands and its effects on cambioxylophagous fauna

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2010
Chemical thinning was applied in blue spruce (Picea pungens Engelm.) stands by the application of Roundup Klasik and Garlon 4 EC. The thinning efficacy of Garlon 4 EC was negligible, while that of Roundup Klasik reached nearly 100% when the full strength

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

open access: yesSilva 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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Sensitivity analysis, calibration and validation of a phenology model for Pityogenes chalcographus (CHAPY)

open access: yesEcological Modelling, 2020
Abstract The purpose of the study was to develop, calibrate and validate a comprehensive phenological model for the spatiotemporal simulation of the seasonal development of the six-toothed spruce bark beetle, Pityogenes chalcographus (CHAPY). The validation dataset was acquired through monitoring of the bark beetle's phenology at eight sites in ...

Non-target Bark Beetles in Ips duplicatus (Sahlberg) Pheromone Traps Baited with Host Volatiles

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca, 2015
Response of several non-target bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) to different combinations of the northern spruce bark beetle’s synthetic pheromone with the monoterpenes (-)-alpha-pinene and (+)-limonene has been studied in choice ...

The occurrence of early-arriving saproxylic beetles on Scots pine logging residues generated by thinning

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2015
The occurrences of early-arriving saproxylic beetles were examined on 1,200 fragments of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) logging residues generated by thinning in a single stand in the Drahanská Highlands in the Czech Republic.

Complex population genetic structure of the bark beetle predator Thanasimus formicarius (L.) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) across its European range

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 437-451, August 2025.
Abstract Thanasimus formicarius (L.) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) is an important bark beetle predator and can reduce bark beetle population densities of some of the most severe forest pests in Europe. We analysed the population genetics and phylogeography of T.
