The ambrosia beetle Anisandrus maiche (Stark) is repelled by conophthorin and verbenone and attracted to ethanol in a dose‐dependent manner

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 25, Issue 1, Page 103-110, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Anisandrus maiche (Stark) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is a non‐native ambrosia beetle recently detected in northwestern Indiana. There is a critical need for advanced methods to detect and manage this potentially destructive beetle.

Functional roles of nematodes associated with the walnut twig beetle and eastern black walnut in the inland northwest

open access: yesForest Pathology, Volume 53, Issue 1, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Beetles (Scolytinae) form intimate associations with a taxonomically and functionally diverse suite of nematodes that are phytopathogens, fungal feeders, and entomoparasites. Despite their ubiquity, the ecological significance of nematodes in the lifecycles of economically important bark and ambrosia beetle species (Curculionidae: Scolytinae ...

Highly diverse cuticular hydrocarbon profiles but no evidence for aggression towards non-kin in the ambrosia beetle <i>Xyleborinus saxesenii</i>. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
We confirmed that different populations of Xyleborinus saxesenii have different chemical profiles. However, we found no evidence for different behavioural responses in relation to these chemical differences, which is surprising considering the typical, highly aggressive response displayed by other social insects in similar situations.

Observations on sex ratio and behavior of males in Xyleborinus saxesenii Ratzeburg (Scolytinae, Coleoptera)

open access: yesZooKeys, 2010
Strongly female-biased sex ratios are typical for the fungal feeding haplodiploid Xyleborini (Scolytinae, Coleoptera), and are a result of inbreeding and local mate competition (LMC).
