Baited traps are a basic component of both specific and generic surveillance programs targeting wood-boring beetles at risk introduction to new habitats because global trade. Among the numerous protocols developed over years for longhorn beetles, jewel bark ambrosia is simultaneous use black multi-funnel set up in understory green canopy forested areas surrounding ports other entry points. These commonly baited with multi-lure blends pheromones host volatiles. In this study, we tested trapping protocol eight points located Europe North America determine: i) relative performance black-understory green-canopy among targeted taxa; ii) whether dissimilarity communities collected by vs. was affected taxon amount forest cover traps’ surroundings. A total 96,963 individuals belonging 358 species were collected, including 21 non-native species. Black-understory generally more efficient than detecting whereas opposite trend observed beetles. Differences between beetle caught mainly attributed differences richness while turnover contributed beetle. The difference number two methodologies decreased increasing cover, increased when moving from an urban-dominated forest-dominated landscape. Overall, these results suggest that can be considered very approach

Taphrorychus hirtellus Eichhoff (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae), a European scolytine beetle previously documented in Central and Southeastern Europe, Turkey (type locality), Algeria, is recorded for the first time Italy. Specimens were collected April May 2021 Circeo National Park (Latium Region, central Italy) multifunnel traps baited with blend of quercivorol, α-copaene, ethanol α-pinene. The species, considered native, new addition to Italian fauna. In faunistic record, an identification key species provided.

Abstract In 2007 to 2008, I assessed the effects of ethanol release rate (dose) on trap catches bark and woodboring beetles, associated species predators, in 6 experiments north-central Georgia. Multiple-funnel traps were baited with alone or co-baited α-pinene (with without beetle pheromones ipsenol ipsdienol). The following ambrosia beetles exhibited a positive dose-dependent response ethanol, regardless co-baits: Corthylus columbianus Hopkins, Dryoxylon onoharaense (Murayama), Hylastes porculus Erichson, salebrosus Eichhoff, Hylobius pales (Herbst), Monarthrum fasciatum (Say), Orthotomicus caelatus (Eichhoff), Xyleborinus saxesenii (Ratzeburg), Xyleborus species, Xylosandrus crassiusculus (Motschulsky) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). tenuis Eichhoff Curculionidae) but not when α-pinene, pheromones.
