Received 14.07.2020; accepted 16.08.2020; published online 30.09.2020 INTRODUCTION RESULTS Invasive longhorn beetles (Coleoptera Ceram- Systematics bycidae) have been present in Europe for a rela- tively long time. However, in the last two to three Ordo COLEOPTERA Linnaeus, 1750 decades the number of these invasive insects in Eu- Superfamilia CHRYSOMELOIDEA Latreille, 1802 rope has risen exponentially due to increased inter- Familia CERAMBYCIDAE Latreille, 1802 national trade of goods which created new and rapid Tribus CALLIDIINI Mulsant, 1839 transport pathway opportunities (Cocquempot & Genus Callidiellum Linsley, 1940 Mifsud, 2013). To this effect, in these last twenty years, 19 species of alien longhorn beetles have been introduced and established in Europe, and Callidiellum rufipenne (Motschulsky, 1860) some 20 other species have been intercepted or recorded, but so far not naturalized (Cocquempot, EXAMINED MATERIAL.

Werner This publication reports research involving pesticides. It does not contain recommenda- tions for their use, nor does it imply that the uses discussed here have been registered. All uses of pesticides must be registered by appropriate state and federal agencies, or both, before they can be recommended. CAUTION: Pesticides can be injurious to humans, domestic animals, desirable plants, and fish or other wildlife—if they are not handled or applied properly. Use all pesticides selectively and carefully. Follow recommended practices for the disposal of surplus pesticides and pesticide containers. Author Richard A.

Res. Pap. PNW-RP-546. Portland, OR: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 15 p. Fire and timber harvest are the two major disturbances that alter forest ecosystems in interior Alaska. Both types of disturbance provide habitats that attract wood borers and bark beetles the first year after the disturbance, but populations then decrease to levels below those in undisturbed sites. -

Blackhorned Pine Borer
Colorado Insect of Interest Blackhorned Pine Borer Scientific Name: Callidium antennatum hesperum (Casey) Order: Coleoptera (Beetles) Family: Cerambycidae (Longhorned Beetles) Figure 1. Blackhorned pine borer adult. Identification and Descriptive Features: The adult insect is a bluish-black beetle, about 15 mm inch long with antennae the same length as the body. The wing covers are more leathery than those of other beetles and the body form is rather flattened. Larvae, found within wood, resemble most roundheaded wood borers, being off-white, elongate legless grubs with brown heads. Larval damage produces sculptured tunneling under the bark that somewhat resembles tracks produced by a router. Tunnels produced by blackhorned pine borer and other Callidium species often are packed with a distinctive, granular frass. Distribution in Colorado: Potentially statewide in association with pines. It is primarily associated with ponderosa pine but will develop in other pines and is often moved in transplants. Life History and Habits: Winter is spent within pine trees, as a full-grown larva. Adults can emerge throughout the warm months of the year and have been observed in early May along the Front Range. Adult beetles feed on tender bark of twigs and shoots, and females lay eggs in pits in the bark. The larvae tunnel under the bark making very wide, wavy tracks that characteristically score the outer wood deeply. Figure 2. Larva of a blackhorned pine borer Older larvae then excavate oval tunnels deep in exposed from under bark. the wood, where they overwinter. There is one generation per year. The blackhorned pine borer is a common insect associated with dead or dying pines, particularly ponderosa pine and Austrian pine. -
