Brachyderes incanus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): new records and confirmation of its establishment in North America
Proceedings of the Entomological Society of Washington, 87(3): 530-534
|
Abstract : Brachyderes incanus, a pest of conifers in Europe, has also been recorded from Missouri (USA) and Canada. Although the validity of the establishment of North American populations has been questioned, it is confirmed in this paper by a review of overlooked records of injury to ornamental conifers (Pinus and Picea spp.) by this curculionid in Massachusetts and New York State and by new state records from Connecticut and Pennsylvania, and additional localities are cited for Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York State. The life history and economic importance in Europe are summarised, and distinguishing characters of the adult of B. incanus are provided. |
