AMERI[CAN MUSEUM NO ITATES PUBLISHED BY THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY CITY OF NEW YORK DEC. 9, 1952 NUMBER 1597 THE CHECKERED BEETLES OF NORTH CENTRAL MEXICO (COLEOPTERA, CLERI DAE) BY PATRICIA VAURIE1 INTRODUCTION A number of recent studies based on the insect material collected by the David Rockefeller Mexican Expedition of the American Museum of Natural History (Spieth, 1950) have confirmed the supposition that most of our southwestern beetle fauna extends southward into northern Mexico, and that many central or south- ern Mexican forms reach as far north as northern Mexico. Data from the northern area, however, have been lacking heretofore. For instance, Gorham in the "Biologia" (1882, 1886) recorded 112 species of Cleridae from Mexico, many of them without specific localities, but only one from north central Mexico. Although later authors (Wickham and Wolcott, 1912; Schaeffer, 1921; and Barr, 1952a, 1952b) recorded 10 additional species from the north central states, at least 32 others have now been found to occur in this area. The present study of the Cleridae taken on the Rockefeller ex- pedition (summer of 1947) includes only those species occurring in the four north central states of Coahuila, Chihuahua, Durango, and Zacatecas, with the exception of Aulicus femoralis from Sonora. Two of the species are described as new, 11 (including A. femoralis, A. dentipes, and nine species of Cymatodera) have not been reported previously south of the United States, and the remainder have already been recorded from the United States and Mexico. One species is cosmopolitan. The 46-odd species be- I Assistant, Department of Insects and Spiders, the American Museum of Natural History. -
Attraction of Ips Pini
CHEMICAL ECOLOGY Attraction of Ips pini (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) and Its Predators to Natural Attractants and Synthetic Semiochemicals in Northern California: Implications for Population Monitoring 1, 2 3 2 2 2 4 D. L. DAHLSTEN, D. L. SIX, D. L. ROWNEY, A. B. LAWSON, N. ERBILGIN, AND K. F. RAFFA Environ. Entomol. 33(6): 1554Ð1561 (2004) ABSTRACT Effective management of bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) relies on accurate assessments of pest and predator populations. Semiochemicals provide a powerful tool for attracting bark beetles and associated predators, but the extent to which trap catches reßect actual population densities are poorly understood. We conducted Þeld experiments in California during 2 consecutive yr to determine how attraction of Ips pini (Say) and its major predators to synthetic pheromones vary from each other and from attraction to natural volatiles emitted from colonized hosts. Synthetic lures consisted of different ratios of the (ϩ) and (Ð) enantiomers of ipsdienol, the primary pheromone component of I. pini, with or without lanierone, an additional component that synergizes attraction in some populations. I. pini was consistently attracted to either 3(ϩ)/97(Ϫ) ipsdienol or infested host plant material. Lanierone had no effect on the attraction of I. pini. Coleopteran predators showed a range of responses, more of which coincided with I. pini. Temnochila chlorodia (Mannerheim) (Trogositidae) was attracted to infested host materials and all synthetic lures. Enoclerus lecontei (Wolcott) (Cleridae) preferentially responded to higher ratios of (ϩ)-ipsdienol, and its attraction was strongly enhanced by lanierone. Enoclerus sphegeus F. was most attracted to infested hosts and exhibited a preference for (Ϫ)- over (ϩ)-ipsdienol. -

Legacy Effects of Mountain Pine Beetle Outbreak: Defense, Growth And
Legacy Effects of Mountain Pine Beetle Outbreak: Defense, Growth and Survival of Residual Lodgepole Pine Trees in Alberta By Shiyang Zhao A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Forest Biology and Management Department of Renewable Resources University of Alberta © Shiyang Zhao, 2019 Abstract Periodic mountain pine beetle outbreaks have affected millions of hectares of lodgepole pine forests in western North America. Within these stands often some pine trees remain alive. In addition to causing direct pine mortality, outbreaks also have short- and long-term legacy effects on both above and below ground communities, resulting in altered stand conditions following outbreak. Currently, the effects of the altered stand conditions on the survival of the remaining residual live pine trees are unknown. Giving the observed low natural pine regeneration in the post-outbreak stands in Alberta, these residual pine trees have become a critical component of recovery of lodgepole pine forests. In my PhD thesis, I studied various aspects of the residual pine trees in post-outbreak stands in Alberta. In particular, I first determined whether the survival of residual trees can be explained by their growth and resin duct-based anatomical defenses. Then, I evaluated the potential risks of several species of bark and woodboring beetles to residual pine trees. For the relationship among resin ducts, growth and tree survival, I first compared the resin duct characteristics and radial growth between residual and beetle-killed trees and characterized the resin ducts and radial growth of residual trees before and after outbreak. -

Millar1 · Austin B. Richards2 · Sean Halloran1 · Yunfan Zou1 · Elizabeth A. Boyd3 · Kristin N. Quigley3 · Lawrence M. Hanks4 Received: 20 December 2017 / Revised: 5 February 2018 / Accepted: 14 February 2018 / Published online: 21 February 2018 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2018 Abstract Research over the past decade has shown that attractant pheromones used by cerambycid beetles are often highly conserved, with the same compound being used as a pheromone component by multiple related species, even among species on diferent continents which have been separated for millions of years. We describe how this conservation of structures can be exploited to identify possible pheromone components for Asian target species with a high risk of invading North America. Thus, col- lection and analysis of volatiles from fve North American species, Semanotus amethystinus (LeConte), Semanotus ligneus (F.), Semanotus litigiosus (Casey), Callidium antennatum hesperum Casey, and Callidium pseudotsugae Fisher, showed that males of the two Callidium species sex-specifcally produced 3-hydroxyhexan-2-one, a previously known cerambycid pheromone component, along with a novel natural product, 1-(1H-pyrrol-2-yl)-1,2-propanedione (henceforth pyrrole). In contrast, males of the three Semanotus species produced only the pyrrole. In feld bioassays, both sexes of C. antennatum hesperum were signifcantly attracted to the blend of the two compounds, and S. -
