Scolytinae subfamily (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) is represented by 135 species in Turkey including 8 species of the genus Hylastes Ericson and 7 species of the genus Crypturgus Ericson. A total of 79 adult individuals of Hylastes opacus Erichson and 6 adult individuals of Crypturgus hispidulus Thomson, C. G. were obtained from log and pheromone traps in pine stands at twelve localities during 2014. H. opacus and C. hispidulus were recorded for the first time in Turkey. H. opacus were obtained from trap logs of Pinus brutia and Pinus nigra and also pheromone traps in P. brutia stands. Adult individuals of C. hispidulus were observed in association with Orthotomicus erosus and Pityogenes pennidens on P. brutia and P. nigra log traps.

  • Patterns of Coevolution Between Ambrosia Beetle Mycangia and the Ceratocystidaceae, with Five New Fungal Genera and Seven New Species
    Persoonia 44, 2020: 41–66 ISSN (Online) 1878-9080 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/pimj RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/persoonia.2020.44.02 Patterns of coevolution between ambrosia beetle mycangia and the Ceratocystidaceae, with five new fungal genera and seven new species C.G. Mayers1, T.C. Harrington1, H. Masuya2, B.H. Jordal 3, D.L. McNew1, H.-H. Shih4, F. Roets5, G.J. Kietzka5 Key words Abstract Ambrosia beetles farm specialised fungi in sapwood tunnels and use pocket-like organs called my- cangia to carry propagules of the fungal cultivars. Ambrosia fungi selectively grow in mycangia, which is central 14 new taxa to the symbiosis, but the history of coevolution between fungal cultivars and mycangia is poorly understood. The Microascales fungal family Ceratocystidaceae previously included three ambrosial genera (Ambrosiella, Meredithiella, and Phia­ Scolytinae lophoropsis), each farmed by one of three distantly related tribes of ambrosia beetles with unique and relatively symbiosis large mycangium types. Studies on the phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary histories of these three genera two new typifications were expanded with the previously unstudied ambrosia fungi associated with a fourth mycangium type, that of the tribe Scolytoplatypodini. Using ITS rDNA barcoding and a concatenated dataset of six loci (28S rDNA, 18S rDNA, tef1-α, tub, mcm7, and rpl1), a comprehensive phylogeny of the family Ceratocystidaceae was developed, including Inodoromyces interjectus gen. & sp. nov., a non-ambrosial species that is closely related to the family. Three minor morphological variants of the pronotal disk mycangium of the Scolytoplatypodini were associated with ambrosia fungi in three respective clades of Ceratocystidaceae: Wolfgangiella gen.

Ophiostomatoid fungi associated with the ambrosia beetle Platypus cylindrus in cork oak forests in Tunisia. Tunisian Journal of Plant Protection 13 (si): 61-75. Cork oak (Quercus suber) is a unique species of the Western Mediterranean region and over the last decades it has been threatened by several pests and diseases. Amongst the main dangerous pests, the ambrosia beetle Platypus cylindrus (the oak pinhole borer) has a key role on the process of cork oak decline namely in Portugal, Morocco, and Algeria. However, in Tunisia, where cork oak forests cover around 90.000 ha of the territory, this insect continues to have a secondary pest status. As all ambrosia insects, P. cylindrus is able to establish symbiotic relationships with fungi and it is known as the vector of ophiostomatoid fungi, a group including primary tree pathogens. The aim of this study was to identify these beetle-associated fungi in Tunisian forests and to understand the contribution of this association in cork oak decline by comparing with the results from other countries.

Twenty-three species documented from the parkway are first records for the state. Of the nine capture methods used during the survey, Malaise traps were the most successful. Periods of adult activity, based on dates of capture, are given for each species. Relative abundance is noted for each species based on the number of captures. Sixteen species adventive to North America are documented from the parkway, including three species documented for the first time in the state. Range extensions are documented for two species. Images of five species new to Virginia are provided. Keywords: beetles, biodiversity, Malaise traps, national parks, new state records, Potomac Gorge. INTRODUCTION This study provides a preliminary list of the weevils of the superfamily Curculionoidea within the George Washington Memorial Parkway (GWMP) national park site in northern Virginia.
