Small spruce bark beetle as a new challenge for forest protection in Siberia [PDF]
The problems of protection of Siberian pine forests, that have arisen in connection with the recent invasion of the European pest - the small spruce bark beetle Ips amitinus (Eichh.), which formed the outbreak foci on the territory of the Tomsk and ...

A PRELIMINARY REPORT ON MITES (ACARI) ASSOCIATED WITH THE SMALL SPRUCE BARK BEETLE IPS AMITINUS (COLEOPTERA: CURCULIONIDAE: SCOLYTINAE) IN WESTERN SIBERIA [PDF]
The small spruce bark beetle Ips amitinus has recently been found in two West Siberian regions: Tomsk and Kemerovo. Here, we collected and identified the mites associated with I. amitinus that naturally colonized branches and twigs of Siberian pine, Pinus sibirica, in Western Siberia, Russia. Five mites species were revealed: Dendrolaelaps quadrisetus (

Small beetle, large‐scale drivers: how regional and landscape factors affect outbreaks of the European spruce bark beetle [PDF]
Summary Unprecedented bark beetle outbreaks have been observed for a variety of forest ecosystems recently, and damage is expected to further intensify as a consequence of climate change. In Central Europe, the response of ecosystem management to increasing infestation risk has hitherto focused largely on the stand level, while the contingency of ...

Participatory ground data are complementary to satellite bark beetle detection
Key message During pest outbreaks, mapping tools play an important role. Participatory projects can provide useful ground data, which have a high accuracy in detecting early-stage infestations and small spots of the European spruce bark beetle Ips ...
