Factors influencing dispersal by flight in bark beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae Scolytinae): from genes to landscapes.

Jones, Kelsey L., Shegelski, Victor A., Marcelis, Nathan G., Wijerathna, Asha N., Evenden, Maya L.
Dispersal by flight is obligatory for bark beetles in the subfamily Scolytinae. Adult bark beetles must leave the natal host and fly to seek new hosts for brood production. Because of the eruptive nature of some bark beetle populations, dispersal capacity has implications for beetle spread and...

Effect of melanism of alpine Colias nastes butterflies (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) on activity and predation
Download2006
Abstract: Melanism in the Sulphur butterfly Colias nastes Boisduval was quantified and related to their ability to remain active under cool or cloudy conditions and to their risk of predation. Darker individuals were more active, moved greater distances, and disappeared from the population at a...

Factors influencing flight capacity of the mountain pine beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae)

Evenden, Maya L., Whitehouse, C. M., Sykes, J.
The mountain pine beetle, Dendroctonus ponderosae Hopkins (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) is the most damaging pest of mature pine (Pinaceae) in western North America. Although mountain pine beetles have an obligate dispersal phase during which adults must locate a new host for brood...
