  • North American Species of Cerambycid Beetles in the Genus Neoclytus Share a Common Hydroxyhexanone-Hexanediol Pheromone Structural Motif
    FOREST ENTOMOLOGY North American Species of Cerambycid Beetles in the Genus Neoclytus Share a Common Hydroxyhexanone-Hexanediol Pheromone Structural Motif ANN M. RAY,1,2 JOCELYN G. MILLAR,3 JARDEL A. MOREIRA,3 J. STEVEN MCELFRESH,3 4,5 6 4 ROBERT F. MITCHELL, JAMES D. BARBOUR, AND LAWRENCE M. HANKS J. Econ. Entomol. 108(4): 1860–1868 (2015); DOI: 10.1093/jee/tov170 ABSTRACT Many species of cerambycid beetles in the subfamily Cerambycinae are known to use male-produced pheromones composed of one or a few components such as 3-hydroxyalkan-2-ones and the related 2,3-alkanediols. Here, we show that this pheromone structure is characteristic of the ceram- bycine genus Neoclytus Thomson, based on laboratory and field studies of 10 species and subspecies. Males of seven taxa produced pheromones composed of (R)-3-hydroxyhexan-2-one as a single compo- nent, and the synthetic pheromone attracted adults of both sexes in field bioassays, including the eastern North American taxa Neoclytus caprea (Say), Neoclytus mucronatus mucronatus (F.), and Neoclytus scu- tellaris (Olivier), and the western taxa Neoclytus conjunctus (LeConte), Neoclytus irroratus (LeConte), and Neoclytus modestus modestus Fall. Males of the eastern Neoclytus acuminatus acuminatus (F.) and the western Neoclytus tenuiscriptus Fall produced (2S,3S)-2,3-hexanediol as their dominant or sole pheromone component. Preliminary data also revealed that males of the western Neoclytus balteatus LeConte produced a blend of (R)-3-hydroxyhexan-2-one and (2S,3S)-2,3-hexanediol but also (2S,3S)- 2,3-octanediol as a minor component. The fact that the hydroxyketone-hexanediol structural motif is consistent among these North American species provides further evidence of the high degree of conservation of pheromone structures among species in the subfamily Cerambycinae.

  • The Goldspotted Oak Borer: Revisiting the Status of an Invasive Pest Six Years After 1 Its Discovery
    The Goldspotted Oak Borer: Revisiting the Status of an Invasive Pest Six Years After 1 Its Discovery 2 3 Steven J. Seybold and Tom W. Coleman Abstract The goldspotted oak borer, Agrilus auroguttatus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae), was first associated with oak mortality in San Diego County, California in May of 2008. Since that time, a research and survey program has outlined the biology of this flatheaded borer in the invaded and native habitats; delimited the invaded range; and developed the components of an integrated pest management (IPM) program. Significant advances have been made in the understanding of its host range, feeding habits, life cycle, and natural enemies in Arizona and California. Some research progress has also been made on the evaluation of techniques for the detection of the pest and treatments to ameliorate its damage. Since the original discovery, we have learned that A. auroguttatus feeds primarily on red oaks in the section Lobatae and that although its landscape-level impacts unfold slowly, it appears to be capable of killing these trees without the aid of abiotic or other biotic factors. The biology, behavior, and impact of A. auroguttatus have also been contrasted with a less well understood sibling species, the Mexican goldspotted oak borer, Agrilus coxalis. The key questions remaining about A. auroguttatus are: 1) Has sufficient progress been made to facilitate a functional IPM program should the expanding distribution of A. auroguttatus reach the urban oaks of the Los Angeles basin or woodland oaks in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada? and 2) Can we assess the risk and predict the population expansion to these lands? Key words: Agrilus auroguttatus, California black oak, canyon live oak, coast live oak, goldspotted oak borer, mortality agent Introduction The goldspotted oak borer (GSOB), Agrilus auroguttatus (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) (fig.

Demonax magus sp. nov. from Peninsular Malaysia is described and illustrated. New species is compared to a related species Demonax nebulosus Gressitt & Rondon, 1970. Demonax nebulosus Gressitt & Rondon, 1970 is newly recorded from China and India. INTRODUCTION The tribus Clytini Mulsant, 1839 is one of the most numerous - in terms of species - tribus of Cerambycidae. Species of the tribus Clytini are known from all biogeographic zones of the Earth except the Antarctic Region. The tribus Clytini is currently divided into approximately 70 genera. From the Palaearctic, Oriental and Australian biogeographic regions, about 1350 species have been described so far. Within these regions, the most numerous genera are Demonax J. Thomson, 1861, Chlorophorus Chevrolat, 1863, Xylotrechus Chevrolat, 1860 and Rhaphuma Pascoe, 1858. The genus Demonax J. Thomson, 1861 was erected by J. Thomson for D. nigrofasciatus from eastern Indonesia. Meantime, about 420 species of this very diverse genus distributed especially in the east and southeast of Asia have been described. In the present paper, I describe a new species of the genus Demonax from Peninsular Malaysia. Demonax magus sp. nov. is described and illustrated. The new species is compared to a related species Demonax nebulosus Gressitt & Rondon, 1970, which is also illustrated. Demonax nebulosus Gressitt & Rondon, 1970 is newly recorded from China and India.

  • The Longhorn Beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) of the City of Kragujevac (Central Serbia)
    Kragujevac J. Sci. 37 (2015) 149-160 . UDC 591.9:595.768.1(497.11) THE LONGHORN BEETLES (COLEOPTERA: CERAMBYCIDAE) OF THE CITY OF KRAGUJEVAC (CENTRAL SERBIA) Filip Vukajlovi ć and Nenad Živanovi ć Institute of Biology and Ecology, Faculty of Science, University of Kragujevac, Radoja Domanovi ća 12, 34000 Kragujevac, Republic of Serbia E-mails: [email protected], [email protected] (Received March 31, 2015) ABSTRACT. This paper represents the contribution to the knowledge of the longhorn beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) fauna of the City of Kragujevac (Central Serbia). Ba- sed on the material collected from 2010 to 2014 by authors, as well as on available litera- ture data, 66 species and 13 subspecies from five subfamilies were recorded, while the highest number of species is registered within the subfamilies Cerambycinae (26) and La- miinae (19). Four species are rarely found in Serbia: Vadonia moesiaca (Daniel & Daniel, 1891), Stictoleptura cordigera (Füsslins, 1775), S. erythroptera (Hagenbach, 1822), and Isotomus speciosus (Schneider, 1787). Subspecies Saphanus piceus ganglbaueri Branc- sik, 1886 is Balkan endemic. Six of recorded taxa [Cerambyx (Cerambyx ) cerdo cerdo Linnaeus, 1758, Morimus asper funereus (Mulsant, 1863), Agapanthia kirbyi (Gyllenhal, 1817), Cortodera flavimana flavimana (Waltl, 1838), Vadonia moesiaca and Saphanus piceus ganglbaueri ] are protected both nationally and internationally. The largest number of recorded taxa belong to Euro-Mediterranean (26) and Euro-Siberian (21) chorotypes. This suggests that both the habitats and climate in the City of Kragujevac and Central Serbia are increasingly assuming more sub-Mediterranean and subtropical features, primarily due to the negative human impact. Keywords: Cerambycidae, fauna, Kragujevac, chorotypes, Central Serbia.

All images in this document are Cerambycidae ............................... 5 of insect damage found in ash trees in Minnesota unless otherwise noted. For information on Sessiidae ................................... 6 external symptoms of EAB on standing trees or comparisons of larval and adult EAB with other Buprestidae (not emerald ash borer) .......... 7 insects, see the links below. Buprestidae (emerald ash borer) .............. 8 FOR MORE INFORMATION : Identification of Emerald Ash Borer and Other Ash Insects: http://www.emeraldashborer.info/identifyeab.cfm http://na.fs.fed.us/fhp/eab/pubs/fieldguide/eabfg.pdf http://www.forestpests.org/ash/ Emerald Ash Borer Information: http://www.emeraldashborer.info http://www.mda.state.mn.us/invasives/eab 2. S CO LY T I DA E : Unlike other insects, adult ash bark beetles feed under the bark just as the larvae do. Bark beetles galleries may take the shape of reproductive galleries like figures 3 and 4 or adult feeding galleries like figures 2 and 5. During 2007-2008 EAB detection tree surveys, ash bark beetles (Hylesinus spp.) were found in ~70% of 1800+ ash trees sampled by Minnesota Department of Agriculture (MDA) across the state. Figure 1.

Haack USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station, 3101 Technology Blvd., Suite F, Lansing, MI 48910 [e-mail: [email protected] (emeritus)] Abstract Ten species of bark- and wood-infesting Coleoptera (borers) and five parasitoid species (Hymenoptera) were reared from shagbark hickory [Carya ovata (Mill.) K. Koch] branches 1-2 years after tree death, and similarly, seven borers and eight parasitoids were reared from slippery elm (Ulmus rubra Muhl.) branches one year after tree death in Ingham County, Michigan, in 1986-87.
