Dispersal and flight behavior of Trypodendron Lineatum (Olivier) (Coleoptera: Scolytidae) as influenced by semiochemical and environmental factors

Laboratory bioassays using a wind tunnel were developed to study flight behavior and orientation of the striped ambrosia beetle, Trvpodendron lineatum (Olivier). Factors that were studied in detail were windspeed, semiochemical concentrations, and semiochemical combinations. In the first of two expe...
