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.

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.

Two-thirds of the spruce in the region have already been destroyed, said Alexander Ahrenhold from the Lower Saxony state forestry office, and Bark beetles are eating through Germany's Harz forest ...
Monochamus is a genus of longhorn beetles found throughout the world. They are commonly known as sawyer beetles or sawyers, as their larvae bore into dead or dying trees, especially conifers [1] such as pines. They are the type genus of the Monochamini, a tribe in the huge long-horned beetle subfamily Lamiinae, but typically included in the ...
In addition, Spruce beetle populations have also been growing in the area in recent years and are further contributing to the existing outbreak. [1] One of the main factors limiting bark beetle population growth is the temperature they can survive at and climate change has raised the average temperature in the region resulting in warmer winters ...
