“…The reasons behind the recent outbreaks have received considerable discussion. Most bark beetles prefer to invade trees that are in poor physiological condition (Rudinsky 1962). Temperature is known to influence insect outbreaks, especially species such as the mountain pine beetle (Amman 1973).…”

This report presents a summary of the most recent inventory information for Idaho's forest lands. The report includes descriptive highlights and tables of area, number of trees, biomass, volume, growth, mortality, and removals. Most of the tables are organized by forest type, species, diameter class, or owner group. The report also describes inventory design, inventory terminology, and data reliability. Results show that Idaho's forest land totals 21.4 million acres. Nearly 76 percent (16.2 million acres) of this forest land is administered by the USDA Forest Service. Douglas-fir forests cover almost 6.3 million acres or roughly 29 percent of Idaho's forested lands, making it the most abundant forest type in the State. The lodgepole pine type is the second-most common type comprising 11.5 percent of Idaho's forest land. In terms of number of individual trees, subalpine fir is the single most abundant tree species in Idaho. Net annual growth of all live trees 5.0 inches diameter and greater on Idaho forest land totaled 376.2 million cubic feet. Average annual mortality totaled nearly 814.6 million cubic feet.

“…Spores germinate into a growing mycelium and reach the xylem, where the pathogen moves into the vessels through a yeast multiplication phase (Webber & Brasier 1984). Later on, the beetles move to dying elms, i.e., infected by DED, to lay eggs in the inner bark of the stem and main branches, which provide an ideal environment for both larval development (Rudinsky 1962) and pathogen fructification (Webber & Brasier 1984). The new contaminated beetles emerge from the bark and move toward the crown of new healthy elms, completing the cycle.…”

“…Bark beetles comprise some of the most destructive forest insect pests in North America and Europe (Rudinsky 1962). Tree death is caused by large densities of colonizing beetles and their associated fungi, which damage the phloem layer (Raffa and Berryman 1983).…”
