58. Coptodryas confusa Hopkins View in CoL

Coptodryas confusa Hopkins, 1915: 54 View in CoL .

Thai distribution: (unspecified southern province) ( Sittichaya et al. 2012); S: Chumphon.

New record: Chumphon, Sawi district , 10° 16' 55.0'' N, 99° 01' 17.2'' E, 67 m, durian plantation, EtOH trap, 1.iii.2010 (W. Sittichaya) (1) GoogleMaps .

Other distribution: Malaysia (E. & W.), Philippines. Intercepted in Japan in timber from East Malaysia. The species also occurs in Brunei Darussalam (R. A. Beaver, unpublished records). (3)

Biology: Apparently highly host-selective, and recorded only from trees of the family Dipterocarpaceae ( Wood & Bright 1992) . It attacks cut trees of any size above about 5 cm diameter, and is recorded to attack freshly sawn, unseasoned boards ( Browne 1961a as Xyleborus cryphaloides Schedl ). The gallery system is simply branched with small, irregular brood chambers in the longitudinal plane ( Browne 1961a).
