The evolution of mating systems in bark and ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae and Platypodidae)

This paper proipides the first overview of reproducti\ e behaviour in this important and widespread group, known to most biologists only by the reputations of tree-killing taxa. Referred to generally as ‘bark beetles’, these inse...

متن کاملOccurrence of Platypus mutatus Chapuis (Coleoptera: Platypodidae) in a brazilwood experimental plantation in Southeastern Brazil.
The hardwood of Caesalpinia echinata Lam. (brazilwood, Pernambuco, ibirapitanga) is currently the most profitable material used for violin bow due to the unique vibrational properties and dimensional stability. Although this species is resistant to the wood decay caused by termites and rot fungi, an experimental plantation in Southeastern Brazil has been attacked by the ambrosia beetle Platypus...
متن کاملAbsence asymmetry: the evolution of monorchid beetles (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae).
Asymmetrical monorchy, or the complete absence of one testis coupled with the presence of its bilateral counterpart, is reported for 174 species of the carabid beetle tribes Abacetini, Harpalini, and Platynini (Insecta: Coleoptera: Carabidae) based on a survey of over 820 species from throughout the family. This condition was not found in examined individuals of any other carabid beetle tribes,...
متن کاملBiology of Bark and Ambrosia Beetles (Coleoptera: Scolytidae and Platypodidae) of a Tropical Rain Forest in Southeastern Mexico with an Annotated Checklist of Species
Feeding habits, degree of host specificity, and mating systems were examined for 83 species of Scolytidae and Platypodidae in a tropical rain forest in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, Mexico. Neotropical genera dominate the fauna; most species have been found in Central America and northern South America. The dominant feeding habit was xylomycetophagy (60.2%) followed by phloeophagy (26.5%), a patt...
