We present the first record for Spain of black twig borer, Xylosandrus compactus, an ambrosia beetle Asian origin, collected from infested carob tree located in Calvià (Majorca, Balearic Islands, Spain). X. compactus is included EPPO Alert List, and it has been recently reported causing damages a Mediterranean maquis ecosystem Italy Southern France. Here, we discuss about steps management this Invasive Alien species (IAS), eradication plan hypothesis path introduction Western island.
Xylosandrus compactus (Eichhoff) (Col.: Curculionidae, Scolytinae) is an ambrosia beetle species native to subtropical Eastern Asia, with great concern due its high invasive ability. This has invaded 54 countries worldwide, including 4 European (Italy, France, Greece, and Spain); it was detected in Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain) October 2019. In the present work, X. recorded for first time Iberian Peninsula (Girona province, NE specimens were collected Banyoles (August 2020, attacking...
In recent years, the oak lace bug, Corythucha arcuata, has emerged as a significant threat to European forests. This species, native North America, in last two decades rapidly extended its range Europe, raising concerns about potential impact on continent's invaluable populations. To address this growing concern, we conducted an extensive study assess distribution, colonization patterns, and ecological niche of bug Europe. We gathered 1792 unique presence coordinates from 21 Eurasian...
The main aim of this work was to identify semiochemicals from the jewel beetle Coraebus undatus (F.) (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) that may aid in improvement current monitoring tools. First, HS-SPME collections revealed individually sampled adults (>7 days old) both sexes release spiroacetal 1,7-dioxaspiro[5.5]undecane (olean). Electroantennographic recordings exposed increasing amounts olean followed a dose-dependent pattern, with females being more responsive than males highest amount...
Abstract The black stem borer Xylosandrus germanus (Blandford, 1894) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is a species native to Eastern Asia that has invaded 24 countries worldwide, including 21 European countries, the USA, Canada and New Zealand. On Iberian Peninsula it was recorded for first time in traps placed Basque Country (Northern Spain) 2003, but its host plants were unknown. In present work, three populations of X. are east Spain Girona, Tarragona Valencia provinces (Automomous...
