ABSTRACT
This study surveyed and compared qualitatively a sample of the insect species of three different forest insect comunities. The three forest types surveyed included a red pine woodlot, a red pine- white pine woodlot and an oak-hickory woodlot. Bach woodlot was approximately ten acres in size. The woodlots studied are located in the Kellogg Forest, Kalamazoo County, Michigan. They were surveyed, using the same methods in each, from June 20 to August
19, 1951. and from April 30 to June 19, 1955.
' collecting of the insects was done mainly by sweeping the herbs, shrubs, and lower tree strata with a thirty-centimeter insect net. other insects were taken after direct observation. In addi- tion, night collecting was done by using automobile headlights as attractants from various locations on logging roads throughout each area. An attempt was ends to collect as many insects as possible from each woodlot. Due to the nunbers involved and the fact that the surveys did not cover an entire year, the insects collected represent only a sample of the woodlot insect commities.
Of the animals collected, only adult or identifiable imature forms of insects were recorded. Representives, as far as could be determined, of each species were mounted and identified to the lowest classification possible.
The insects were then listed by woodlot and an attempt was made to determine which species were actually native to both the coniferous and deciduous woodlots. me out of five insect species recorded during the study was found to occur in both wood- lot types. However, review of the feeding habits and life histories of these species revealed that only one half of them, or about one out of ten insect species recorded, could be considered to be native to both the pine and oak-hickory woodlots. The majority of these insect species were found to be either scavengers, parasites or predators. Very few phytophagous insects were native to both wood- lot types. These findings led to the conclusion that, in general, insect enemies of forest stands are limited to either coniferous or deciduous stands and cannot attack both types of forest.
Sumation of the nunbers of insect species recorded from each woodlot revealed that more insect species were recorded from the oak-hickory woodlot than fr’m either of the pine woodlots. More in- sect species were found in the red pine-white pine woodlot than in the red pine woodlot. It was concluded that the greater the numbers and types of vegetation occurring in the woodlot the greater was the number of insect species Occurring in the woodlot.
This was supported by the fact that the oak-hickory woodlot had more vegetation than the red pine—white pine woodlot and it in turn had more vegetation than the red pine woodlot. It seemed probable that an increase in vegetation increased the numbers of ptwtophagous insect species and their predators and hence increased the total number of insect species semen to the woodlot.

It is generally agreed among biologists that particular animal
species are closely associated with specific plant communities.
The study of these relationships of animals and plants is termed bio-ecology. Past studies have shown the importance of these re- lationships in all faunal research. Very little research has been done on forest insect communities and their associations with
specific forest plant communities by entomologists, even though forest; entomology is one of the most important branches of
economic entomology. This paper is a study in forest insect bio-
ecology.
This study surveyed and compared qualitatively a sample of
the insect species of three different forest insect communities.
The three forest types surveyed included a red pine woodlot, a
red pineawhite pine woodlot and an oak-hickory woodlot. The wood-
lots studied are located in the Kellogg Forest, Kalamazoo County,
Michigan. They were surveyed, using the same methods in each,
from June 20 to August 19, l9Sh, and from.April 30 to June 19, 1955.
This study was initiated while attending the summer School
session at the Kellogg Gull Lake Biological Station during lQSh
and continued throughout the season. HISTORICAL REVIEW
Studies in forest entomology date back to the first part of the nineteenth century. The approach of the early studies and liter-
ature derived from.interest in the insects themselves, rather than
in their relationships to the forest. 'Work done in the last part of the nineteenth century and early twentieth century'began to
show the importance of the forest's relationship to its insect population. Medern studies and literature in forest entomology
stress this relationship but most of the recent work has approached
the relationship from studies of insect enemies of specific forest
tree species, group studies of certain forest insects, or life history studies of particular forest insect enemies and their parasites. Little work has been done on beneficial and other
supposedly economically unimportant.forest insects in relation to
the total ferest community. Even less research has been done in
the field of forest insect bio-ecology, in which the forest insects are studied as an animal population or community in association with a definite forest plant community.
The first insect bio-ecology studies were done in connection with two land animal bio-ecology studies made by Adams, (1906 and
1909), in which the insects were included as a part of the total animal community. Adams devoted particular attention to beetles along with other animals in relationship to their occurrence in various plant communities. Shelford (1907) traced the relation- ship of Cicindela species to various plant communities. A later study of animal communities by shelford (1913), associated various animal dominants, mostly insects, with one or more plant dominants in general plant communities.
other biotic studies in terrestrial animal bio-ecology made during the past thirty years followed the pattern of Adams and studied the forest fauna with regards to the total animal community.
Weese (l92h), and Smith (1928, 1930 and 1932), contributed a series of animal ecology studies in deciduous forests of central
Illinois. Their works were largely quantitative and considered to a large extent the physical factors influencing the habitat. More recent studies have in general followed these same lines.
The only study available in published literature that includes a comparison of coniferous and deciduous forest fauna is that of
Blake (1926). His paper included a comparison of the land animal communities of a climax pine-hemlock forest and a climax elmdmaple forest. The pine-hemlock forest was studied during the summer of
1923. The elmpmaple forest study was made during the winter of
192h-l925. Both areas were located in central Illinois but not in the immediate vicinity of each other. The animal populations were sampled by the same methods in both areas. Only the numerically or otherwise influential yearly and seasonal animal dominants were graphically illustrated and discussed, no other animal data being given in the paper. The animals were discussed in relation to their occurrence in stratal subdivisions of the forests. Blake concluded from his results that "The animal communities of the coniferous and deciduous forest have a different taxonomic composition; only h.5%, all non-predominants, are common to both."
It is believed however, that since the studies used by Blake for comparison were made in different localities and at different ' seasons of the year, the correlation for comparison is limited and does not necessarily offer an accurate comparison of the animal populations. on.
IIETHODS AND MATERIALS
The main method used for the collection of the insects was sweeping the herbs, shrubs, and lower tree strata of the woodlots with a thirty centimeter (12 inch) insect net. The insects on the ground and tree trunks and the aerial forms were taken after direct observation. Insects of the upper tree strata were not surveyed. night collecting was done by using automobile headlights as attract tants from various locations on logging roads throughout each area.
Althought the attemt was suds to collect as many insect species as possible from each woodlot, collection of all of the species was impossible due to the numbers involved and the fact that the surveys did not cover the entire year. This study thus represents a sample of the total insect commities in the surveyed areas.
collecting was scheduled so that each woodlot would receive approximately equal amounts of the time spent collecting during the stuw. The schedule was arranged so that each woodlot would be surveyed equally as to specifications of day or night. Surveys were made in all kinds of weather with the exception of heavy rains.
0f the animals collected, only adult or identifiable inature force of insects were recorded. Rspresentives, as far as could be determined, of each species were mounted and identified in accordance with the most recent available entomological literature.
Insect identifications were verified by Assis tent Professor Fischer.
Keys and catalogues which were utilised for insect identifications are listed in the bibliography. The scientific names of all plant species mentioned in this paper may be found in M. L. Fernald's
largely rewritten and expanded version of m W of .M’
(1950). The soil data of the areas studied.was taken from.the
United states Soil conservation Service, Soil Survey of Kalamazoo
county, michigan, soil Survey Report. Series 1922,.No. 18.
The ferest communities studied were three different woodlot
compartments, each approximately ten acres in size, located in the
Kellogg Forest, Kalamazoo County, Michigan. The Kellogg Forest
consists of four hundred and eighty five acres of forest land,
owned and operated by Michigan state university. The university
carries on research and demonstrations of land uses, in addition
to operating a multiple land use program in the area. To facili~
tate the handling of the land use program.the area has been sub-
divided into numbered woodlot compartments. This study surveyed
the insect communities of woodlot compartments numbers 6A, 7 and
10. Compartment No. 6A. This compartment is located in the NE %,
SW %, NH % of Section 22, Ross Township, Kalamazoo County, Michigan.
It was planted in the fall of 1931 and spring of 1932 to red pine,
Pinus resincsa. The plantings were thinned and crop trees selected
in 19b? and again in 19Sh. The topography of this area is somewhat
irregular and broken, but in general consists of a slope to the
north and west. The gradient of the slope varies from S to 30%.
A small ravine which consists of a steep slope varying from 25 to
30% cuts into the center of the compartment. Previous to 1930 attempts to farm this hilly topography resulted in moderate to severe
erosion of the tepsoil and some subsoil. The soil type of the area,
‘with the exception of the bettom.and top levels of the slope, is
Coloma loam. The soil types of the bottom and top levels are, re—
spectively, Oshtemo loamw'sand and Bellefontaine sandy loam.
Vegetation on the area consisted of the red pine overestory with no other vegetation occurring except for about 1 S of the area where openings in the crown closure allowed direct light to reach
the forest floor. Beneath these openings various individual species
of deciduous herbs, shrubs and trees had become established. The
following list of plant species were observed in the openings.

compartment 7. This compartment is located in the SE %, SW
%, NW’% of section 22, Ross Township, Kalamazoo county, Michigan.
In 1932, red pine and white pine, Pinus strebus, were planted in a three row and one row mixture in this compartment. The tree plantings have been left undisturbed except for pruning the stand in l9h8 and 1950. The topography of this site is somewhat irregular and broken, ranging from gently rolling to hilly. The northwest corner occupies a relatively gentle slope to the west. The remainder of the compartment occupies a uniformly steep irregular lepe to the west with gradients of 25 to 30%.
Vegetation occurring on the area included the red and white pine overstory and as in Compartment 6A, numerous individual plant species occurring beneath the few scattered openings in the tree overstory. Plant species observed in these openings were the same as those listed for Compartment 6A plus white pine reproduction and a few individual scotch pines, Pinus sylvestris: compartmmt 10. This compartment contained forty-five acres of natural oakhhickory forest. In 1923 the eastern eighteen acres
'were burned over but have since been undisturbed and have grown back to a predominantly oak-hickory stand. Approximately ten acres of this previously'burnedpover area was surveyed for'its insect pop- ulation. The location of the ten acres studied in the n .41, m; 3;, 3"} of section 22,‘Ross Township, Kalamazoo county, Michigan. This compartment has gently rolling topograplv and has colon loan sand for its soil type.
The tree overstory was observed to be composed of roughly 85% oak and 10% hickory with the remaining 51 being miscellaneous tree species. The oak group was composed of roughly 80% black oak, 15% white oak and 5% red oak, Qggrcus‘ggbra. The hickory was about one half pignut hickory, 9251!.fil5253’ and one half shagbark hickory,
92522.23333’ Tree species in the miscellaneous group included red maple; silver maple; sugar maple; scarlet oak, Quercus coccinea; black cherry; big-tooth aspen; sassafras; flowering dogwood, 925222 florida; white ash; hawthorne; slippery elm; and basswood, Tilig americana. The plant species observed occurring in the understory are given in the following lists.

All the insect species recorded during the study are listed in
Table I of the appendix. The first part of the discussion is concerned with those species of insects that were recorded from both the pine and oak-hickory woodlots. These species are listed in Table 2. Litera- ture concerning the life history and feeding habits of each species was reviewed in anattempt to determine whether or not the particular species was native to both pine and oak-hickory forests. These species are discussed in the order that they appear in Table 2.
Table 3 lists those species that appeared to be native to both the coniferous and deciduous woodlots surveyed in this stuck. The latter part of this discussion deals with the total numbers of species re- corded from each woodlot and from both the pine and oak-hickory wood- lots, (Table h).
Order Orthoptera. This order had three species that occurred in both the pine and oak—hickory" woodlots. Scudderia septrionalis,
a bush katydid, was recorded from both types of woodlot but it is reported by Blatchley (1920a) to feed on the leaves and twigs of various deciduous plants, preferably oak and black cherry. It and all of the following deciduous plant-feeding insect species re- corded from the pine woodlots were considered non-native to the pine areas. It is assumed that they were there only because of the atypical deciduous vegetation occurring beneath openings in the pine overstories. The walking stick, Diapheromera femorata, was record-
ed from all three woodlots. It feeds on various deciduous plants,
(Blatchley 1920a) , and therefore was not native to the pine woodlots.
l3 ’
The woodroach, Ischnoptera pennsylvanica, is reported, (Blatchley
1920a), to be a scavenger feeding on decaying animal and vegetable
refuse. It was considered native to both the pine and oak-hickory woodlots.
Orders Odonata, Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera and Triceptera. In
these orders all the immature forms are aquatic and live in water until ready to become adults. Review of literature concerning their adult habits showed them, with the exception of one species, to be atypical to all of the woodlots. They are always found in the
vicinity of permanent bodies of water. Their presence was no doubt
due to the Augusta Creek passing through the locality about five
hundred yards away from all three woodlots. The lone exception was
Agrion naculatum, a damsel fly, reported by Walker (1953) as being
mainly a forest species.
Order Isoptera. Only one species, Reticulitermes flavipeg,
a subterranean termite, was recorded during the study from this
order. It occurred in all three woodlots. This termite is re-
ported by Craighead (1950), to attack both coniferous and deciduous wood and was considered native to all three woodlots.
Order Thysanoptera. Many species of thrips were recorded from
all three woodlots but could not be determined below family. It is
believed however that particular thrips species are specific plant
feeders and probably were not native to both types of woodlot.
Order Hemiptera. Phy'mata fasciata, an ambush bug, was taken
from all three woodlots. This species is predaceous, (Blatchley
1926), and so was considered native to both types of woodlot. Neides muticus, a stilt bug, was recorded from both woodlot types
but was reported by Blatchley (1926) to feed on low deciduous herbage and was not considered native to pine stands. Hyaliodes
vitripennis, a leaf bug, is predaceous on plant lice, (Knight 19hl),
and.was considered native to all the woodlots.
Order Hemoptera. Eight species of this order were recorded from both the pine and oakuhickorwaoodlots. Of these, six species were members of the fimily Cicadellidae and all were reported by Britten
(1923) to feed on various deciduous plants and so were not native to the pine woodlots. A cercopid, Philaronia bilineata, was re-
corded in large numbers from all three woodlots. This species feeds on deciduous plants, (Britten 1923), and was not native to the pine stands. One or more species of dog-day cicadas, Tibicen spp.,
'were observed in the tree tops of all three areas. The females of this genus are known to oviposit in both coniferous and.deciduous trees, (Britten 1923), so probably the species were native to all three woodlots. Various species of aphids were recorded from all three sites but could not be determined below family classification.
Since aphids are generally specific as to host plants it appeared prObable that none of the species were common to both types of woodlot.
Order necoptera. Two species were recorded and both were considered to be native to all three woodlots. Bittacus strigosus
is reported by Comstock (1950), to be predaceous on other insects.
Panorpadebilis feeds on injured insects.
Order Neuroptera. The majority of species in this order are prodaceous but only one genus occurred in both types of woodlot.
Hemerobius spp. were recorded from all three woodlots and were
considered native since theyywere reported by Banks (1906) fodfeed on aphids.
Order colooptora. All species habits, unless otherwise men- tioned, were taken from Blatchley (1920b). The various species of the families Lycidae, Lampyridae, Cantharidae and coccinellidae, takm from both types of woodlot were all reported to be predaceous on insects and other small animals and were considered cannon to all three woodlots. The species recorded from the family Elateridao were not native to pine forests since Homicrepidius bilobatus is predacoous
on hickory borers and Helanotus M foods on deciduous plants, (Dietrich 191:5). Ptilodactyla serricollis is reported to be
associated with perment bodies of water and not necessarily with forest stands. It was not considered native to the woodlots. The hister beetle, 9141 on caorctatum, and the tenebrionid, lleracsntha
contracts, were both reported to be scavengers and so were native to all three woodlots. The species recorded from the families
Scarabaeidae and chrysonelidae were reported to be deciduous plant feeders and were not native to the pine woodlots. The larvae of the curculionid, Bractwrhinus ovatus , was reported by Blatchley and
Long (1916) to feed on the roots of both coniferous and deciduous trees and was considered native to all three woodlots. The other curculihonid, curculio uniformis,is a nut weevil and was not native to the pine woodlots . Order Lepidoptera. Some difficulties were encountered in determining species of this order and many could not be determined below family classification. Those species which were determined presented a problem as to whether or not they were native to both forest types since the adults recorded were all aerial forms and could have migrated from one forest type to the other. The life histories and feeding habits of many species could not be found in the literature. It is believed, however, since most of the species of chidoptera are plant feeders and are usually quite specific to either coniferous or deciduous plant hosts, that none of the recorded species were common to both types of forest. Craig— head (1950), reported that Papilio glaucus, Papilio troilus,
Whalis antioga, Ponias mops, Pero spp., Epicnaptera americana,
Synchlora aerata, Iygris diversilineata, mperatis amicaria and
D_g_smia funeralis all food on various types of deciduous plant
growth and so were not native to the pine woodlots. He also re- ported that Semiothisa spp. feed on either coniferous or deciduous
plants depending on the Species but none of the species feed on both types of vegetation. Epizeuxis spp. were reported by the same source to feed on dried conifer needles so were not native to the oak-hickory woodlot. The feeding habits of these determined species all supported the preceding conclusion.
Order Diptera. All feeding habits and life history reports, unless otherwise mentioned, were taken from Curran (19314). Diff- iculties were encountered in determination and many of the Species 17
could be determined only to family. The discussion, therefore, is concerned with family habits rather than with species habits. In this order the family habits are generally the same for most of the family seniors.
The larva and/or adults of most of the species of the families
Tipulidae, Bibionidae, Phoridse, Syrphidse, Lonchaeidae: Lauxsniidse,
Drosophilidae, Clusiidae, luscidae and Sarcophagidse were reported to be scavengers on various types of decaying organic matter. There- fore the species recorded from both the deciduous and coniferous woodlots from these families were considered to be native to both types of woodlot. The female. species recorded from the families
Culicidae and Tabsnidae such the blood of warm-blooded animals.
They are found in the vicinities of their hosts and so were con- sidered to be native to all three woodlots. The dance flies, family Empididae, are reported to be predaceous and the species re- corded were considered to be cannon to both types of woodlot. The species recorded from the families Bombyliidae and Tachinidae were reported to be parasitic on other insects and were native to all three woodlots. The larvae of most of the species of the families
Scisridae and Pungivoridae were reported to feed on various types of fmgus growth and so some of the recorded species were probably native to both woodlot types. The Anthowiidse and Psilidse were reported to be plvtophsgous and in general specific to either coniferous or deciduous vegetation. They were not considered native to both types of woodlot. species of the families Simuliidae, 18
Tendipodidae, Heleidae and Dolichopodidae were reported to be found only in the vicinity of sold-permanent or permanent bodies of water rather than in association with forest stands. Therefore they were not considered native to the woodlots.
Order Woptera. All the habits reported, unless otherwise mentioned, were taken from mossbsck (1951). Some of the species were not determined below family so are discussed as a family.
The sawflies of the genus _A_r_g_e_ are all external feeders on various deciduous plants. They were not considered to be native to the pine woodlots. species of the families Ichneumonidae and
Braconidao and most of the species of the superfamilios chalcidoidoa and Proctotrupoidos are carnivorous, being either ends- or ectopsr— asites. The species recorded from these families from both types of woodlot were therefore considered to be native to both woodlot types.
The species recorded from the superfamily cynipoides were probably not native to both woodlot typos since most members of this super- family are plurtophagous and are usually limited to either coniferous or deciduous plants. The black carpenter ant, camponotus m-
oanus pomsylvanicus, was reported by Craighead (1950), to attack
the dead heartwood of living trees and almost any wood materials and so was considered to be native to all three woodlots. The ants of the m La__s_i£_s_ live in soil or under wood and attend honey—dew excreting insects and were native to both types of woodlot. The undetermined species of ants could not be considered since the feed- ing habits vary so greatly among ant species. Vespula msculifrons, 19
a vespid wasp, was considered native to all the woodlots since the
adults were reported to be partially predaceous. The sphecid wasps,
Gorytes sp. and Ectemnius sp. were considered.native to all three woody
lots since all of the wasps of this family are either inquilinous
or predaceous in the adult form. Andrena spp. and E22222 ragga: are pollen and nectar feeding bees and so were not considered native to the pine stands. The halictid bees, Lasioglossum.spp. and Augochlors
page, were probably native to both types of woodlot since the majority
of the members of this family nest in the soil.
Approximately one out of five insect species recorded was found
to occur in both the coniferous and deciduous woodlots. However, the preceding discussion, which reviewed the life histories and feeding habits of these species, revealed that only one half of them could be considered to be native to both the pine and oak-hickory woodlots.
The majority of species common to both types of woodlot were found
to be either scavengers, parasites or predators. The other one half
of the insect species recorded from both woodlot types were found
to be nonenative to one or the other forest type or in some cases
to be atypical of any forest stand. The presence of these insects was probably due to one of the following reasons: the atypical deciduous vegetation occurring beneath openings in the overstories
of the pine woodlots, the presence of the Augusta Creek passing within about five hundred.yards of all three woodlots, or the possibility that some of the 2i.)
aerial insect forms migrated.from one woodlot type to the other.
The elimination of the atypical insect species reduces the number of insect species native to both the coniferous and deciduous woodlots to approximately one out of every ten insect species recorded during the study.
Summation of the numbers of insect species recorded from each
'woodlot,(Table h), revealed that more insect species were native to the oak-hickory woodlot than to either of the pine woodlots. The red.pineawhite pine woodlot was found to have more insect species than the red pine woodlot. It seemed that the greater the numbers and types of vegetation occurring in the woodlot, the greater the number of insect species recorded.from.the woodlot. ThiS‘WRS supported by the fact that the oak-hickory woodlot had more vegeta- tion than either of the pine woodlots. To further support this conclusion the red pineawhite pine woodlot had one more tree species and much more atypical deciduous vegetation in the understory than did the red pine woodlot. It appeared probable that the increase in plant species brought a similar increase in the presence of phytophagous insect species and their predators and hence increased the total number of insect Species common to the woodlot. 21
' SONAR! AND CONCLUSIONS
The insect comunities of coniferous and deciduous forests seemingly differ both in species and in species numbers. The deciduous plot studied showed the greater number of insect species due to the greater number of species of plants. It was found that as the number of plant species increase the number of insect species also increase. Approximately 10% of the insect species were native to both the pine and oak-hickory woodlots. The majority of these species native to both forest types studied were either scavengers, parasites or predators. Very few phytoph- agous insect species were comon to both types of forest.
