Results of monitoring of xylophilous beetles with pheromone traps in the Botanical Garden of PetrSU
The taxonomic list of xylophilous hardflies recorded in the Botanical Garden of PetrSU contains 17 species from 8 families. Insects were collected using barrier traps with aggregation pheromones synthesized by FGBU VNIIKR (bark beetle Ips typographus ...

Commodity risk assessment of oak and walnut logs from the US
Abstract The European Commission submitted to the EFSA Panel on Plant Health a Dossier from the United States proposing the use of a vacuum–steam–heat treatment as a stand‐alone phytosanitary measure to mitigate the risk of entry of Bretziella fagacearum, Geosmithia morbida and its vector Pityophthorus juglandis (thousand cankers disease complex) into ...

ABSTRACT Temporary rivers and streams are characterized by flow cessation and support high biodiversity of both aquatic and terrestrial species. In this study, we analyzed biological and ecological traits of benthic invertebrates to assess the ecological resilience and resistance of an intermittent river in Central Italy.

Nematodes Associated WithDryocoetes uniseriatus(Coleoptera: Scolytidae) [PDF]
We examined the nematode fauna associated with a species of bark beetle, Dryocoetes uniseriatus Eggers, as part of a biodiversity survey of forest beetle-associated nematodes. Collections were made in a pine stand at an experimental forest station in Ibaraki, Japan, from April to July of 2011; we examined the nematode association in 273 insects ...

A new insect boring in fossil wood from the Iranian Upper Cretaceous
Abstract Here we describe Iranichnus farsensis igen. et isp. nov., a bioerosion trace in fossil wood characterized by a system of sinuous channels in the wood under the bark, also bearing small borings radially oriented within the channels. We attributed this to insects, most probably a beetle from one of the groups known to feed on wood just under the

Natura 2000 Cusma Site Scolytidae
SUMMARY The emergence and development of pest outbreaks over thresholds, hazardous or critical, can lead to serious disturbances of the forest ecosyste ms, thus making human intervention indispensable. The main pest of windfall and snow affected pine fo rests are the Scolytidae family strain beetles (Simionescu et. all. 2000).

Outbreak‐prone insects often undergo explosive population growth despite high natural mortality caused by predators, disease, host toxicity and inclement weather. Although contemporary forest pest management focuses on short‐term tree protection, there is increasing interest in developing strategies to directly suppress outbreaks.

Effect of Pest Control Strategies on Arthropod Pests of Apple in Europe: A Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT Apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) is a major fruit crop in Europe. More than 200 phytophagous arthropod species thrive in European apple orchards, several of which are economically important pests. Due to the pest pressure on apple production, consumer demand for residue‐free products and current policies to make food production in the European ...

Pine Sawflies, Neodiprion spp. (Insecta: Hymenoptera: Diprionidae)
Pine sawfly larvae, Neodiprion spp., are the most common defoliating insects of pine trees, Pinus spp., in Florida. Sawfly infestations can cause growth loss and mortality, especially when followed by secondary attack by bark and wood-boring beetles ...

Acoustic communication in bark beetles (Scolytinae): 150 years of research
We review publications spanning 153 years of research on bark beetle bioacoustics—we summarize existing knowledge, identify gaps and propose avenues for future research in this field. At least five sound production mechanisms have been reported across 125 examined species of bark beetles, with elytro‐tergal, gular‐prosternal and vertex‐pronotum ...
