Title: A Simple Rearing Technique for Obtaining Eggs or Young Larvae of the Southern Pine Beetle
Author(s): Clark, Edgar W.
Date: 1965
Source: Res. Note SE-44. Asheville, NC: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Southeastern Forest Experiment Station. 2 p.
Station ID: RN-SE-044
Description: In two earlier notes we described techniques that utilized pine bolts for rearing the southern pine beetle (Dendroctonus frontalis Zimm. ) and the coarse writing engraver (Ips calligraphus Germ. ) (Clark and Osgood 1964a, 1964b). This note presents ample technique for maintaining a constant, easily accessible source of southern pine beetle eggs or larvae. It is a modification of a technique developed for western bark beetles by SmithÂ’ and has been used successfully for 2 years.
