Distribution
Ambrosiophilus atratus is an ambrosia beetle native to the Eastern Palearctic now established in France, Italy and Slovenia ( Faccoli 2008, Dodelin 2019, Hauptman et al. 2019). The present finding is the first record of the species in Lombardy.
Notes
Ambrosiophilus atratus is a highly polyphagous species, capable of developing in both hardwoods and conifers ( Ruzzier et al. 2023). Recent observations, coupled with the lack of damage attributable to the species, however, seem to suggest that A. atratus might have a negligible phytosanitary value, preferring severely debilitated or already dead plants as reproductive substrate ( Ranger et al. 2010, Reed et al. 2015, Ruzzier et al. 2022a).
