	abstract = {In recent years, there have been considerable damages of shot-hole borer, Scolytus rugulosus Muller, and cytosporiose disease by Cytospora species on twigs, branches and trunks of apple and sweet cherry trees in orchards of Tehran province, Iran. The fungi causes necrotic blotches around internal or external holes of the bark beetle. In the year 2002, samples of infected branches of apple and cherry trees were collected from different parts of Tehran province. The samples were cultured in PDA and MA media, an ten isolates of Cytospora were isolated in which 9 isolates belonged to C. leucostoma. One of the most aggressive isolate was selected to conduct the test of transmission by the beetle. This experiment was carried out based on the following treatments: with three replicates, 1 - releasing two mated females on each young trees, 2 - Spraying Cytospora leucostoma suspension on young trees, 3 - Releasing two mated females covered with the Cytospora leucostoma suspension, 4 - Control. This study confirmed that cytosporiosis of apple and cherry trees is transmitted by the shot-hole borer in the region.},

	abstract = {This paper gives a summary overview on the forestry aspects of the bark beetles in South Tyrol within their faunistic framework. The faunistic data are based on previously reports from South Tyrol by Gredler (1866-1898), Peez \& Kahlen (1977), Kahlen (1987) and Hellrigl (1975-2002), supplemented with recent reports and findings by the Author. The present check-list for South Tyrol comprises 104 taxa of bark beetles, of which 92 species have been established (including 85 endemic and 7 imported species), whereas the occurrence of 12 species means doubtful or conjectural. The number of species listed has nearly doubled during the last 110 years, since Gredler{\textquoteright}s listing. Compared with South Tyrol, 76 species of bark beetles have been recorded in North Tyrol; whereas for East Tyrol, 60 species have been confirmed. The basis of the Forestry aspects is formed by the Author{\textquoteright}s research work over several decades (1966-2011), documented by his collection of bark beetles. The number of species of bark beetles that appeared frequently in South Tyrolean forests over the past 45 years, amounts to only 48 (underlined in the listing); only few of these species did repeatedly cause damages to trees. In the case of conifer bark beetles, infestation is usually the result of lightning strikes, wind-pressure or snow- pressure or drought; or, not infrequently, following pre-damaging fungus diseases. The yearly reports of wood damaged by conifer bark beetles amount to c. 8,000-16,000 m3; this is moderate, considering a total wooded area of 336,000 ha. [long dash] From deciduous tree bark beetles, some like Scolytus rugulosus and Xyleborus dispar, appear as pests in fruit-tree cultures; whereas at the end of last century damage was caused by "elm bark beetles" (Scolytus sp.), especially in urban areas, in connection with a fungus disease ("Elm disease").},

A. undulatum is a species of maple, endemic to Babadag near Fethiye in Mugla Province, southwest Turkey where it grows at altitudes of between 1400 and 1800m. The related pest is feeding and tunnelling between back and cambium of mostly ornamental trees. The objective of the study was to determine the harmful pests threatening this endemic plant.},
