“…Coniferophagous species such as Monochamus scutellatus (Say) prefer larger-diameter hosts, or the largest-diameter portion of a given host, for oviposition Hughes 1982, 1987), which would provide the most resources for developing progeny. In contrast, many lamiine species that attack hardwoods prefer smaller trees, no Ͼ20 cm in diameter and often much less (Brooks 1923;Solomon 1968Solomon , 1972Solomon , 1974Nord et al 1972a, b), which may help to minimize the energy they expend chewing oviposition sites through the thinner bark of younger trees. Both young and old trees are attacked by A. glabripennis, and this species is known to favor areas where the bark is relatively thin and smooth for oviposition on older trees (Haack et al 1997, Lingafelter andHoebeke 2002).…”

▪ Abstract Increasing demand for wood and wood products is putting stress on traditional forest production areas, leading to long-term economic and environmental concerns. Intensively managed hardwood forest systems (IMHFS), grown using conventional agricultural as well as forestry methods, can help alleviate potential problems in natural forest production areas. Although IMHFS can produce more biomass per hectare per year than natural forests, the ecologically simplified, monocultural systems may greatly increase the crop's susceptibility to pests. Species in the genera Populus and Salix comprise the greatest acreage in IMHFS in North America, but other species, including Liquidambar styraciflua and Platanus occidentalis, are also important. We discuss life histories, realized and potential damage, and management options for the most economically influential pests that affect these hardwood species. The substantial inherent challenges associated with pest management in the monocultural environments created by IMHFS are reviewed. Finally, we discuss ways to design IMHFS that may reduce their susceptibility to pests, increase their growth and productivity potential, and create a more sustainable environment.

“…The three Monochamus species captured all share a common resource (i.e., stressed and dying pines) but little is known about specific colonisation patterns. Resource partitioning of host trees is common in wood-inhabiting beetles that temporally and spatially co-occur (Nord and Knight 1972;Paine et al 1981;Ayres et al 2001), but caution must be taken in drawing conclusions from trapping studies on this behaviour. While M. notatus was captured in equal numbers at the two heights, both M. carolinensis and M. scutellatus showed strong responses to different trap heights.…”

Knowledge of the effects of variables that can influence trapping results should help to optimise efforts in exotic species detection and other surveys. Two vertical trap placements (understorey, canopy) were tested to determine influence of these two heights on captures of Scolytinae (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), Cerambycidae (Coleoptera), and Siricidae (Hymenoptera) using semiochemical-baited multiple-funnel traps. Traps were baited with α-pinene, ethanol, ipsdienol, and ipsenol. A total of 8463 insects from 65 species and one genus were captured during the study. Average species richness, species diversity, abundance, number of unique species, and expected diversity were higher in understorey compared with canopy traps. Jaccard (0.94 ± 0.05) and Sørensen abundance (0.97 ± 0.03) similarity indices suggested highly similar communities sampled at the two trap heights. Dendroctonus valens LeConte, Dryocoetes autographus Ratzeburg, Hylastes opacus Erichson, Orthotomicus caelatus (Eichhoff), Gnathotrichus materiarius (Fitch), Asemum striatum (Linnaeus), Monochamus scutellatus scutellatus (Say), Rhagium inquisitor (Linnaeus), and Xylotrechus sagitattus sagitattus (Germar) were more abundant in understorey traps. In contrast, Ips pini (Say), Pityogenes hopkinsi Swaine, Monochamus carolinensis (Olivier), Acmaeops proteus (Kirby), and Astylopsis sexgutatta (Say) were more abundant in canopy traps. The common practice of trapping in the understorey may be optimal for sampling arboreal insects as part of survey efforts. However, additional species may be found by trapping at other vertical placements.
