Abstract:
... The pine weevil [Hylobius abietis (L.); Coleoptera: Curculionidae] has a high economic impact on forest regeneration in Europe. The general biology of the pine weevil has received considerable attention, although there is insufficient knowledge about its diel behaviour and time budget. Therefore, in the present study, the feeding and locomotion behaviour of individual adult weevils on Norway spruc ...

Abstract:
... The pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) feeds on the bark of coniferous seedlings and is the economically most important forestry restocking pest in large parts of Europe. Substances with an antifeedant effect may offer an environmentally friendly alternative to insecticides for the protection of planted seedlings. Bioassays were performed on commercial and synthetic meth ...
