Abstract:
Abstract Most of the current understanding of the orientation and communication of jewel beetles arose from research on the Asian emerald ash borer (EAB), Agrilus planipennis, which has become one of the most destructive invasive forest insect pests in history following its introduction to North America and European Russia. From a European perspective, a number of jewel beetles have a high invasive risk similar to that of the emerald ash borer, including the potential threat of the bronze birch borer Agrilus anxius, the goldspotted oak borer Agrilus auroguttatus, and the twolined chestnut borer Agrilus bilineatus. Native jewel beetles expanding their geographic range include the cypress jewel beetle Ovalisia festiva and the black-banded oak borer Coraebus florentinus. Other native species are increasing in their importance, including the flathead oak borer Coraebus undatus, the two-spotted oak borer Agrilus biguttatus, the flatheaded beech borer Agrilus viridis and Agrilus cuprescens. Commonly used prism and multi-funnel trap designs and other promising experimental trap designs have been tested and compared in the US and in Europe. One factor considered has been colouration, typically purple and green. Another is olfactory attraction, both to plant volatiles and extracts such as (Z)-3-hexenol, Manuka oil, Phoebe oil and Cubeb oil, and also to pheromones such as (Z)-3-lactone, for emerald ash borer. Field observations have been made of mating and host-finding behaviours of oak buprestids based upon visual stimuli in North America and Europe. By using pinned dead EAB models, visual mating approaches have been observed by males of Agrilus biguttatus, Agrilus sulcicollis and Agrilus angustulus, which is a behaviour similar to that previously observed in EAB. Green plastic-covered branch-traps significantly out-performed other trap designs and caught more Agrilus jewel beetles if an artificial visual decoy that copies a beetle body was included. A higher fidelity decoy offered the same distinctive light-scattering pattern as real resting EAB females and elicited the full sequence of stereotypical male mating flight behaviour of EAB and A. biguttatus from up to 1 m away. An optimization of visual, olfactory and other possible stimuli has likely not yet been achieved. More sophisticated trap designs could lead to more sensitive detection capabilities with increased selectivity.

Abstract:
Abstract Bark and ambrosia beetles are commonly moved among continents within timber and fresh wood-packaging materials. Routine visual inspections of imported commodities are often complemented with baited traps set up in natural areas surrounding entry points. Given that these activities can be expensive, trapping protocols that attract multiple species simultaneously are needed. Here we investigated whether trapping protocols commonly used to detect longhorn beetles (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) and jewel beetles (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) can be exploited also for detecting bark and ambrosia beetles. In factorial experiments conducted in 2016 both in Italy (seminatural and reforested forests) and Canada (mixed forest) we tested the effect of trap color (green vs purple), trap height (understory vs canopy), and attractive blend (hardwood-blend developed for broadleaf-associated wood-boring beetles vs ethanol in Italy; hardwood-blend vs softwood-blend developed for conifer-associated wood-boring beetles, in Canada) separately on bark beetles and ambrosia beetles, as well as on individual bark and ambrosia beetle species. Trap color affected catch of ambrosia beetles more so than bark beetles, with purple traps generally more attractive than green traps. Trap height affected both beetle groups, with understory traps generally performing better than canopy traps. Hardwood-blend and ethanol performed almost equally in attracting ambrosia beetles in Italy, whereas hardwood-blend and softwood-blend were more attractive to broadleaf-associated species and conifer-associated species, respectively, in Canada. In general, we showed that trapping variables suitable for generic surveillance of longhorn and jewel beetles may also be exploited for survey of bark and ambrosia beetles, but trapping protocols must be adjusted depending on the forest type.

Abstract:
The aim of the research was to determine the ecological features and to evaluate the harmfulness of the most common xylophagous insects at the territory of the National Nature Park «Gomilshansky Forests». In deciduous forests of the National Nature Park «Gomilshansky Forests», 22 species of xylophagous insects from 16 genera of three families have been found, i.e. longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae), jewel beetles (Buprestidae) and bark beetles (Curculionidae: Scolytinae). The vast majority of species are polyphages. Five species (Xylotrechus antilope, Agrilus biguttatus, A. hastulifer, A. laticornis and A. sulcicollis) were found only in the English oak, Dicerca (Dicerca) aenea was found only in the elm, and other xylophagous insects were found in different deciduous trees. The jewel beetle Agrilus biguttatus, the bark beetles Scolytus intricatus, Xyleborus dispar, Xyleborus monographus and Xyleborinus saxeseni colonized the most vital trees. The longhorn beetle Anisorus quercus colonized drying up trees, and the longhorn beetles Poecilium alni and Prionus coriarius colonized only dead trees. Potential injuriousness of each species was evaluated considering both physioogical injuriousness and technical injuriousness. Four species (18.2 %) – A. biguttatus, S. intricatus, Xyleborus dispar and Xyleborinus saxeseni – are potentially the most harmful with the frequency of occurrence 7 %, 5 %, 1 %, and 1 % respectively. Among 9 moderately harmful species (40.9 %), the most spread are Plagionotus arcuatus, P. detritus and Saperda scalaris (11 % each). Slightly harmful are 5 species, or 22.7 %, harmless are 6 species, or 18.2 %. The data obtained are the basis for further comparing the species composition and harmfulness of xylophagous insects in the zones with different management regimes of the national nature park.

Abstract:
In the last decade the cypress jewel beetle Ovalisia festiva (Linnaeus, 1767) has become a real threat in many European countries. Although it was reported from Bulgaria long ago, there is no data on its current status. The aim of this study is to present new data on cypress jewel beetle’s distribution, damage and natural enemies in the country. The research was conducted in the period 2016-2019, with 106 localities on the territory of Bulgaria examined. As a result of the current study 16 localities new for this species were found. Our rearings identified adults of the parasitoid Metacolus unifasciatus Forster, 1856 (Hymenoptera, Pteromalidae) and the parasitizing mites belonging to genus Pyemotes. Amerling, 1861 (Acarina: Pyemotidae). The parasitoid-host association of M. unifasciatus with O. festiva is considered here a new biological relationship, not previously recorded for these species. Currently the cypress jewel beetle O. festiva is widely distributed in Bulgaria and can be regarded as an important pest in landscaping.

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences 366, no. 1565 (March 12, 2011): 709–23. http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rstb.2010.0197.

Abstract:
The elytra of the Japanese jewel beetle Chrysochroa fulgidissima are metallic green with purple stripes. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy demonstrated that the elytral surface is approximately flat. The accordingly specular green and purple areas have, with normal illumination, 100–150 nm broad reflectance bands, peaking at about 530 and 700 nm. The bands shift progressively towards shorter wavelengths with increasing oblique illumination, and the reflection then becomes highly polarized. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the epicuticle of the green and purple areas consists of stacks of 16 and 12 layers, respectively. Assuming gradient refractive index values of the layers between 1.6 and 1.7 and applying the classical multilayer theory allowed modelling of the measured polarization- and angle-dependent reflectance spectra. The extreme polarized iridescence exhibited by the elytra of the jewel beetle may have a function in intraspecific recognition.

Abstract:
Twelve shrub rose cultivars were evaluated for pest resistance in the southern Blue Ridge mountains under high humidity and rainfall (1.34 inches per week average during the 1994 and 1995 growing seasons). `Albo plena', `Blanc Double de Coubert', `Fru Dagmar Hastrup', `Roseraie de l'Hay', R. rugosa `Alba', `Sarah van Fleet', and `Topaz Jewel' were highly resistant to black spot and Cercospora sp. leaf spot. `Alba Meidiland', `Linda Campbell', `Pink Meidiland', and `Scarlet Meidiland' were susceptible, while `Bonica' displayed intermediate resistance to both diseases. `Sarah van Fleet' foliage and the flowers of `Albo plena', `Blanc Double de Coubert', and R. rugosa `Alba' were damaged by Japanese beetle feeding. No other cultivars were damaged by Japanese beetles.

Abstract:
In tasar silkworm culture the stem-boring jewel beetle Psiloptera fastuosa Fabr. (Buprestidae: Coleoptera) is considered as a major pest of tasar plant (Terminalia arjuna, Combretaceae) cultivation. The grubs of P. fastuosa often damage the Arjuna stem by causing dieback. Tyrophagus putrescentiae Schrank (Acari: Acaridae) infested buprestid eggs up to 15% and caused egg mortality up to 9%. The mite predation on the buprestid beetle is reported for the first time. The mite seeps the newly-laid egg-fluids causing the egg mortality suggesting that tasar plant stem-boring pest (P. fastuosa) can be partially controlled by the mite as a natural enemy.

Abstract:
The genus Evides Dejean, 1833 (Coleoptera: Buprestidae) belongs to the family of woodboring beetles commonly known as jewel beetles. This comparative study was undertaken on the morphological characteristics of three species from field specimens, private collections and collections at the Transvaal Museum of Natural History. The genus Evides consists of eleven species and one subspecies in total worldwide. Nine species and one subspecies are endemic to Sub-Saharan Africa. One species is recorded from India and further species from Laos and Vietnam: Bellamy (World Catalogue, in prep.) The objective of the study was to quantify morphological differences between species representing the genus in South Africa. Specimens of E. gambiensis (Laporte & Gory, 1835), E. interstitialis (Obenberger, 1924) and E. pubiventris (Laporte & Gory, 1835) were collected in the Waterberg (Limpopo Province) and additional specimens of E. pubiventris were collected at Ezemvelo Nature Reserve (Gauteng Province). All three species are related, difficult to differentiate in the field and occur on the same host plants, marula (Sclerocarya birrea (A. Rich.) Hochst.) and false marula (Lannea discolor (Sonder) Engl.). Results indicate that there are morphological differences and species can be differentiated according to elytra length, total elytron width, eye size, frons length, frons width and abdomen length.

Abstract:
A brief overview of the importance of wood boring insects is provided. Background on the two wood boring insect families Buprestidae (Coleoptera) and Sesiidae (Lepidoptera) is given. Keys and checklists to Tennessee’s buprestid fauna as presently known are furnished. Photomicrographs depicting characteristics separating Tennessee buprestid taxa to the level of species are provided for select couplets to aid those unfamiliar with buprestid morphology and terminology. Distribution and flight data of many species within the state are also featured. Results of a phylogenetic analysis of the Chrysobothris femorata (Olivier) species complex is presented based on the nuclear gene arginine kinase and the mitochondrial gene cox I. Implications of the resultant phylogenies are discussed. Phylogenetic relationships with the economically important sesiid tribe Synanthedonini are explored using cox I gene sequences. The cox I tree inferred provides interesting new insight into some ambiguous evolutionary relationships. Morphological characters that are used to distinguish genera within Synanthedonini are discussed and compared with the molecular data.
