Our appreciation to USDA Forest Service and ODA for funding this project. Introduction Begin key This identification aid is a comprehensive key to the genera of western North American Cerambycidae (roundheaded or long- horned wood borers). It also includes several genera (and species) that are either established in the region or that are targets of USDA and other exotic cerambycid surveys. Keys to commonly trapped or encountered (based on ODA’s years of wood borer surveys) indigenous species are also included. *This aid will be most reliable west of the Rocky Mountains. It may not function well with taxa found in the desert West and east of the Rockies. This aid is designed to be used by individuals with a wide range of taxonomic expertise. Images of all character states are provided. Begin key Use of This Key: I This key is designed like a traditional dichotomous key, with couplets. However, PowerPoint navigational features have been used for efficiency. -

(1993). Two new species of Entomophthoraceae (Zygomycetes, Entomophthorales) linking the genera Entomophaga and Eryniopsis. - Sydowia 45 (2): 264-274. Two new species of the genus Eryniopsis from nematoceran Diptera are descri- bed; E. ptychopterae from Ptychoptera contaminala and E. transitans from Limonia tripunctata. Both produce primary conidia and two types of secondary conidia. The primary conidia of E. ptychopterae are 36-39 x 23-26 urn and those of E. transitans 32-43 x 22-29 um. The two species are very similar but differ mainly in the shape of the conidia and number of nuclei they contain. Both species closely resemble mem- bers of the Entomophaga grilly group and probably form the missing link between Eryniopsis and Entomophaga. Keywords: Insect pathogenic fungi, taxonomy, Diptera, Limoniidae, Ptychop- teridae. The Entomophthoraceae consists of mostly insect pathogenic fun- gi whose taxonomy has not been lully resolved. One controversial genus is Eryniopsis which is characterized by unitunicate, plurinucleate and elongate primary conidia usually produced on un- branched conidiophores and discharged by papillar eversion (Hum- ber, 1984). -

Ethanol and (–)-A-Pinene: Attractant Kairomones for Some Large Wood-Boring Beetles in Southeastern USA
J Chem Ecol (2006) DOI 10.1007/s10886-006-9037-8 Ethanol and (–)-a-Pinene: Attractant Kairomones for Some Large Wood-Boring Beetles in Southeastern USA Daniel R. Miller Received: 12 September 2005 /Revised: 12 December 2005 /Accepted: 2 January 2006 # Springer Science + Business Media, Inc. 2006 Abstract Ethanol and a-pinene were tested as attractants for large wood-boring pine beetles in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina in 2002–2004. Multiple-funnel traps baited with (j)-a-pinene (released at about 2 g/d at 25–28-C) were attractive to the following Cerambycidae: Acanthocinus nodosus, A. obsoletus, Arhopalus rusticus nubilus, Asemum striatum, Monochamus titillator, Prionus pocularis, Xylotrechus integer, and X. sagittatus sagittatus. Buprestis lineata (Buprestidae), Alaus myops (Elateridae), and Hylobius pales and Pachylobius picivorus (Curculionidae) were also attracted to traps baited with (j)-a-pinene. In many locations, ethanol synergized attraction of the cerambycids Acanthocinus nodosus, A. obsoletus, Arhopalus r. nubilus, Monochamus titillator, and Xylotrechus s. sagittatus (but not Asemum striatum, Prionus pocularis,orXylotrechus integer)to traps baited with (j)-a-pinene. Similarly, attraction of Alaus myops, Hylobius pales, and Pachylobius picivorus (but not Buprestis lineata) to traps baited with (j)-a- pinene was synergized by ethanol. These results provide support for the use of traps baited with ethanol and (j)-a-pinene to detect and monitor common large wood- boring beetles from the southeastern region of the USA at ports-of-entry in other countries, as well as forested areas in the USA.

A Computer Model of the Gypsy Moth and Its Fungal Pathogen 5
Abstract A one-host generation computer model, with a time-step of 1 day, has been developed to simulate the interaction between the very effective fungal pathogen, Entomophaga maimaiga, and its host, the gypsy moth. This publication describes the structure of the validated model, the kinds of model inputs needed and the outputs produced, and gives examples of model results. The model can be used to construct scenarios of future gypsy moth-fungus interactions and to evaluate the effectiveness of the fungus as a biological control agent. A Computer Model of the Gyl--, Moth and its Fungal Pathogen By Ronald M. Weseloh The gypsy moth fungal pathogen, Entomophaga rroper weather conditions are very impoftant for the maimaiga, was first found to be established in North fungus to be effective. Moist soil during the gypsy moth America in 1989 (Andreadis and Weseloh 1990), and larval season and adequate rainfall at the times of conidial positively identified as a species from Japan (Hajek et al. sporulation must occur for the fungus to infect larvae. The 1990). Since 1989, the fungus has significantly suppressed number of resting spores in the soil (resting spore load) and the gypsy moth in the generally infested areas of North the number of gypsy moths available for infection probably America. Numerous scenarios have been proposed for how it also influence hngus activity. Using these inputs, colleagues became established (Hajek et at. 1995), but we probably will and I have developed a computer model that simulates the never know for sure. infection, growth, and death of the host and pathogen over a Fortunately, E. -
The Gypsy Moth Fungus
The Gypsy Moth Fungus Linda Butler Professor of Entomology Division of Plant and Soil Sciences West Virginia University 1998 In recent years, dramatic collapses of gypsy moth populations in the eastern states are due, in large part, to the fungus Entomophaga maimaiga. A native of Japan, this fungus is a natural enemy of gypsy moth larvae. Questions have arisen as to the origin of the fungus in North America. The "gypsy fungus" was collected in Japan and deliberately released near Boston between 1910 and 1911, but subsequent studies did not recover it. Spring of 1989 was particularly rainy in the Northeast when gypsy moth populations appeared to be increasing. When larval population collapses were noticed, examination of larval cadavers revealed spores of an entomophthoralean fungus soon shown to be E. maimaiga. Dr. Ann Hajek (Cornell University) has evaluated many possibilities as to origin of the fungus identified in 1989. She and her co-workers concluded the most likely scenarios are that the weak fungus introduced in 1910 evolved into a virulent strain or that the fungus was accidentally introduced recently into the Northeast (Hajek et al. 1995). How does the fungus spread? The fungus can be inadvertently or deliberately spread by humans moving soil or gypsy moth larval cadavers containing the resting spores, but the conidiaspores (produced on the outside of the caterpillar body) are small and airborne enabling rapid natural spread. "Such rapid spread was completely unexpected and has never before been documented for an entomopathogenic fungus" (Hajek et al. 1996). How much impact does the fungus have on defoliating populations of gypsy moth? We have only to look at gypsy moth defoliation figures for the northeastern and mid-Atlantic states to see the effect of the fungus. -

This species was previously known only fromSouthern Europe and one locality detached fromthe mainrange on the island of Gotska Sandön in Southern Sweden. Information on its northern spread and current distribution is summarized and critically analyzed and new data on its biology are provided. The morphology of A. tenuicorne adults was studied using 46 specimens from different localities and compared with 63 specimens of the widely distributed Asemum striatum. Differences between the two species are presented and illus- trated using external features, morphometric measurements, shape of the male copulatory organs and wing venation. J. M.
