Hylastes Ater

Many bark beetles (Coleoptera Curculionidae Scolytinae) exhibit a wide array of acoustic abilities including sounds used in mate attraction territoriality and defence In New Zealand the goldenhaired bark beetle Hylurgus ligniperda and the black pine bark beetle Hylastes ater are two species of forest insects which may be found on export logs Acoustic signals have been shown to discourage a related bark beetle the western pine beetle Dendroctonus from entering into pine logs and to disrupt mating and tunnelling These recent studies combined with observations of H ligniperda and H ater helped to establish the concept that acoustic disruption could be used as part of a wider systems approach to deter these beetle species near saw mills skid sites and ports If proven effective this technique would add value to New Zealand log exports and decrease the reliance on toxic fumigants as the primary control measure This study shows some of the functions and physical characteristics of the acoustic signals produced by H ligniperda and H ater

The adult stages of three key New Zealand forest pests burnt pine longhorn beetle (Arhopalus ferus) goldenhaired bark beetle (Hylurgus ligniperda) and black pine bark beetle (Hylastes ater) were fumigated at 10 or 20C for 4 h to determine their mortalities at increasing dosages of methyl bromide as a first step towards developing a new fumigation schedule for New Zealand export logs Hylastes adults were the most methyl bromide tolerant methyl bromide concentration required to control Hylastes adults is much lower than the phytosanitary requirement for export logs to India and China which requires 120 g/m3 for for logs exported from New Zealand but further work on other life stages is required
