The spruce beetle is the most serious pest of mature and overmature interior spruce in British Columbia; [8] small-diameter, rapidly growing trees were least susceptible to attack or death from spruce beetle, and the greater susceptibility of large-diameter, slowly-growing trees was more closely related to recent radial growth than to diameter. [9]
Monochamus scutellatus, commonly known as the white-spotted sawyer or spruce sawyer or spruce bug or a hair-eater, [1] is a common wood-boring beetle found throughout North America. [2] It is a species native to North America.
Dendroctonus micans, the great spruce bark beetle, is a species of bark beetle native to the coniferous forests of Europe and Asia. The beetles burrow into the bark of spruce trees and lay eggs which develop into larvae that feed on the woody layers under the bark.
Rhizophagus grandis is a species of predatory beetle in the family Monotomidae. [1] R. grandis is a specialist predator on the larvae of the great spruce bark beetle (Dendroctonus micans), a pest of spruce trees (Picea), and is found in Eurasian forests where its prey is found.
Species of spruce trees face assault from insects such as the white pine weevil (Pissodes strobi), Cooley spruce gall adelgid, and the pine needle scale (Chionaspis pinifoliae). The final category of Christmas trees, pines, are commonly susceptible to insect infestation and damage from the pine root collar weevil ( Hylobius radicis ), Zimmerman ...
Elatobium abietinum feeds by sucking sap from spruce needles, often causing defoliation of older needles and wilting of young growth. The presence of the aphids weakens the tree by decreasing growth rates and making it more susceptible to attack by other pests such as the spruce beetle (Dendroctonus rufipennis). Serious defoliation can kill the ...
Spruce is the standard material used in soundboards for many musical instruments, including guitars, mandolins, cellos, violins, and the soundboard at the heart of a piano and the harp. Wood used for this purpose is referred to as tonewood. Spruce, along with cedar, is often used for the soundboard/top of an acoustic guitar. The main types of ...
The mountain pine beetle has killed large numbers of the lodgepole pine trees in the northern mountains of the US state of Colorado. The more recent outbreak of another bark beetle pest, the spruce beetle, is threatening higher-elevation forests of Engelmann spruce. [1] Chemical prevention is effective but too costly for large-scale use.
