Arten er det viktigste skadedyret på gran i Norden. Også kjent som stor granbarkbille, typografen og boktrykkerbille. Svermingen finner sted i mai–juni, når dagtemperaturen når opp i cirka 18 grader. Billene søker da fortrinnsvis til stammen av større trær som er brukket av snøen eller veltet under stormer. Den kan også oppsøke svekkede trær og ubarket tømmer som lagres i skogen, eller hogstavfall. Hannen borer seg først inn under barken og gnager ut paringskammeret. Den sender samtidig ut signalstoffer, feromoner, som lokker andre hanner og hunner til stedet. Billens signalstoffer er identifisert, og produseres syntetisk og brukes til bekjempelse av billene. Arten er polygam, og hver hann har vanligvis 2–4 hunner som gnager morgangene ut fra paringskammeret, parallelt med vedens lengderetning. I juli er neste generasjons biller utviklet, men forlater treet først i august–september. Noen blir vinteren over under barken der de er vokst opp, særlig hvis de har utviklet seg i liggende stammer. De fleste billene overvintrer i skogbunnen. Billen er utbredt i grandistriktene på Østlandet, på Sørlandet vest til Kristiansand, og i Trøndelag og Nordland. På 1800-tallet påførte den skogbruket store skader, og i 1970-årene drepte den omkring 1 million trær i den sørlige delen av Hedmark. Granbarkbillen er ikke farlig for skogen når bestanden er lav. Først når den gis gode utviklingsbetingelser, i for eksempel stormfelt virke, slik at bestanden blir høy, er billene i stand til å overvinne motstanden fra levende trær. Som regel må flere tusen biller gå sammen for å drepe en frisk gran. Etter større stormfellinger kan granbarkbillen lett øke i antall og drepe store arealer med eldre granskog. Trær som angripes vil holde seg grønne i baret i flere uker etter angrepet. Men angrepet kan oppdages fordi det samler seg brhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/1.jpgGranbarkbillenGranbarkbillen er utvilsomt vår viktigste barkbille på gran. Under bestemte forhold kan den angripe og drepe helt friske grantrær. Den har et godt utviklet kjemisk signalsystem og et etablert samarbeid med blåvedsopper, og er derfor i stand til å drepe grantrærne relativt raskt og utnytte dem som ynglemateriale. Billen er utbredt over hele landet der hvor grana vokser naturlig Det viktigste mottiltaket er god skoghygiene. Etter en stormfelling bør trærne ut av skogen før de kan danne grunnlag for oppformering av barkbiller. Hogstflatene bør ryddes, og ubarket virke må ikke lagres i skogen såpass lenge utover ettersommeren at den nye generasjon av biller forlater tømmeret. Det er også viktig, at grana ikke blir stående hogstmoden for lenge. Stående trær som blir angrepet må snarest mulig fjernes fra skogen. Hvis ikke dette gjøres, og angrepstettheten er stor, vil billene trekke ut og angripe andre trær i nærheten. Dessuten vil avkommet som produseres for en stor del overvintre i bakken like ved de angrepne trærne, og kunne angripe omkringstående skog neste år.2024-05-02T10:12:25+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/05/09/adaptive-resource-management-achieving-functional-eradication-of-invasive-snakes-to-benefit-avian-conservation/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/snake-7786203_1920-1.jpgsnake-7786203_1920 (1)https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/jpe14597-toc-0001-m-1.jpgjpe14597-toc-0001-m (1)2024-04-30T13:08:38+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/05/02/passive-tree-diversity-increase-after-intense-forest-exploitation-a-matter-of-drought-tolerant-and-animal-dispersed-species/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/tree-4462010_1920-1.jpgtree-4462010_1920 (1)https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/figure3.jpgFigure3https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/figure2.jpgFigure2https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/figure1.jpgFigure12024-04-30T12:40:14+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/04/29/can-livestock-help-restore-pollination-services/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/field-8503934_1920-1.jpgfield-8503934_1920 (1)2024-04-25T14:32:01+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/04/25/land-sparing-outperforms-land-sharing-for-amazonian-bird-communities-regardless-of-surrounding-landscape-context/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/study-site-1.jpgstudy site (1)https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/4.jpg4https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/3.jpg3https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/2.png2https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/1.jpg12024-04-25T11:32:09+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/04/30/contributing-to-the-conversation-on-community-engagement-in-ecosystem-restoration/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/arj08300_feature.jpgArJ08300_featurehttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/20220730_111426.jpg20220730_111426Field trip to restoration site © Marian Farriorhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/20230513_160230.jpg20230513_160230Restoration Team Leader training at a remnant prairie © Marian Farriorhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/arj08300-1.jpgArJ08300Prairie restoration work party © Bill Arthur2024-04-22T10:50:03+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2024/04/23/no-change-in-burning-of-peatland-in-eastern-scotlands-moorlands/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/spracklen_muirburn_feature.jpegSpracklen_muirburn_featurehttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/spracklen_muirburn_compressed.jpgSpracklen_muirburn_compressedPrescribed fires burn off the vegetation resulting in a patchwork of older vegetation (in foreground) and burnt vegetation.

commercial farmland in South Africa (clockwise from top left): African civet (14.0/100km2 and 1.7/100km2), black-backed jackal (46.2/100km2 and 29.8/100km2), caracal (0.8/100km2) and brown hyena (11.6/100km2). Note that brown hyena and caracal densities are given for only one of the farmland blocks. This is because of hyena attraction to cameras, which yielded a questionably high density estimate in one case, and because of a lack of data for caracal in the second blockhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/day-of-the-jackal.jpgDay of the Jackal‘The Day of the Jackal’ by Frederick Forsyth © Dr Umm2023-06-01T13:47:20+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2023/06/01/using-salt-marshes-for-coastal-protection-effective-but-hard-to-get-where-needed-most/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/salt-marsh-g104146a8b_1920-1.jpgsalt-marsh-g104146a8b_1920 (1)https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/fig1.jpgfig1https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jappl-2022-00059-graphical_abstract_high_resolution.pngJAPPL-2022-00059-graphical_abstract_high_resolutionhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo1.jpgphoto1https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo2.jpgphoto2https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo3.jpgphoto3https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo4.jpgphoto4https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo5.jpgphoto5https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/photo6.jpgphoto62023-05-31T13:43:39+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2023/06/06/adaptive-staged-scale-restoration-practices-for-upland-prairies-italian/2023-05-30T13:51:38+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2023/05/26/new-associate-editors-2023-journal-of-applied-ecology/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_ianvaughan.pngJPE_IanVaughanhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_virginiamorera-pujol.jpgJPE_VirginiaMorera-Pujolhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_robert-dunn.jpgMaker:S,Date:2017-1-30,Ver:6,Lens:Kan03,Act:Lar02,E-YMaker:S,Date:2017-1-30,Ver:6,Lens:Kan03,Act:Lar02,E-Yhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_songhanwang.jpgJPE_SonghanWanghttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_richardsherley.pngJPE_RichardSherleyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_phil-martin.pngJPE_Phil Martinhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/jpe_paulfranklin.jpgPaul franklin PortraitPaul franklin -

The optimisation selects management actions that have the greatest probability of long-term success by maximising the expected action outcomes while also incorporating new knowledge from previous actions.

(a) Conventional short-lived wildflower (WF) strip sown in the first and removed after 3 years. Arthropod communities fluctuate with successional stage and finally disappear together with refuge, constructing an ‘ecological trap’ (Table 1). (b) Persistent, rotational, composite WF block, removal and re-sowing of WF strip elements, three successional stages are simultaneously available to wildlife. (c) Rolling, composite wildflower block and aged WF strips are removed at one end and new WF strips are sown at the other. (b) and (c) increase habitat heterogeneity and species richness and provide persistent refuges to wildlife. Compact shape reduces edge effects and pesticide spillover from the agricultural field.

Fire-managed heathlands are seen in the background. Traditional use of fire is often blamed for destroying the resource base and threatening biodiversity, but here grazing and burning maintains a mosaic heathland landscape, which reduces the risk of landscape-wide wildfires.

From this series of images, it is possible to appreciate colour variations across cordylid species. Some display colourful integuments (e.g. Pseudocordylus microlepidotus, Cordylus vittifer), others have a plain colour (e.g. C. niger). From top left to right, down on the right, bottom right to left, centre: C. cordylus (Western Cape), Smaug giganteus (Free State), C. macropholis (Western Cape), C. niger (Western Cape), S. vandami (Mpumalanga), P. microlepidotus (Eastern Cape), C. vittifer (Mpumalanga).

Ecologists working in Kuiburi National Park, Thailand, discovered that sambar deer were abundant in the homelands of indigenous people living inside the park. Sambar were rare elsewhere in the park. The local people had instituted rules against hunting sambar, enforced through social norms. Here the park is officially recognizing this conservation achievement.

The main foraging areas were delimited based on the 50% recursive space use isopleth of each individual during the whole tracking period. Each colour represents an individual; dotted and solid lines represent individuals tracked in 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 respectively. Pictures point to the breeding sites of Amsterdam albatrosses, Indian yellow-nosed albatrosses, Northern rockhopper penguins, Sooty albatrosses and brown skuas. Subantarctic fur seals breed all along the coast of the island. Photo: Romain Bazire / French Polar Institute (IPEV).

Policy-based management often promoted such forbs, which were sometimes undesirable to landowners but used by certain birds for perching and nesting substrates. Greater forb diversity likely reduced nest predator search efficiency and attracted more arthropod food resources for grassland birds. Photo by J.

By preventing severe wildfires, deer may ultimately contribute to oak survival and enhance long-term ecosystem carbon stocks.2021-08-16T15:51:04+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2019/01/15/monitoring-welsh-agri-environment-schemes/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/800px-vale_of_llangollen.jpg800px-vale_of_llangollenhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/hay-bales-3531084_960_720.jpghay-bales-3531084_960_7202019-01-15T12:53:57+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2019/01/18/standing-out-in-the-sagebrush/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/56_1-image.jpg56_1 imagehttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/mcewan_20130411_0157-runge-et-al..jpgSage Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)Sage Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus)2019-01-11T14:30:14+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2019/01/10/assessing-uneven-global-distribution-in-applied-ecology-your-thoughts/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/jan-2019-editorial-publications-map.jpgjan 2019 editorial - publications maphttps://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2664.133192019-01-10T16:57:14+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2019/01/07/editors-choice-561/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/seedlling-store.pngseedlling storeA seedling store at INFAPRO seedling nursery, where a number of different seedling species are tended for enrichment planting in logged forest (photo by Gianluca Cerullo).https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/machete-redly.pngmachete redlyRemoving lianas to speed up forest recovery (photo by Gianluca Cerullo).https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/logged-forest-.jpglogged forestLogged forest by Gianluca Cerullo.2019-01-07T09:22:12+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2018/12/11/pest-vole-control-by-owls/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/photo_3.jpgPhoto_3Owlets just after fledging, holding a vole provided from a parent owl. © Satoru Chiba.https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/nest_box-e1544203289450.jpgNest_boxhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/figure_4.pngFigure_4https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/photo_2.jpgPhoto_2An old apple tree where owls used to breed every year.

Their goals are to evaluate the risk of non-native species becoming invasive in the park’s natural ecosystems and to develop a prioritisation tool for the management of non-native species in protected areas. Here they are at the Abrigo Rebouças (Rebouças refugee) with the Pico das Agulhas Negras (Agulhas Negras Peak) behind. The projected is funded and supported by ICMBio and CNPq-Brazil, and they are the Laboratory for Biological Invasions and Conservation from the University of Lavras, Brazil.https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/meredith-root-bernstein-biella.jpgMeredith Root-Bernstein - BiellaMeredith Root-Bernstein was at an art-science fieldwork/ workshop trip in the Piemonte pre-Alps near Biella (Oasi Zegna). https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/manuela-gonzalez-suarez-finland-post-eccb.jpgManuela Gonzalez-Suarez - Finland post-ECCBManuela Gonzalez-Suarez spent a post-ECCB conference weekend at a lake cottage near Kattila, Finland -"just gorgeous!"https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/manuela-gonzalez-suarez-eccb.jpgManuela Gonzalez-Suarez - ECCBThe view Jyväskylä, where ECCB 2018 took place.

Sales take place when trees reach certain size. The blue contours show the gross margin of the nursery. The darker the blue the larger the gross margin. Black lines display contours of the probability of introducing a pest or disease. The red dotted line shows where the maximum gross margin is obtained. These contours depend on demand variability and planting rate. In this system, the expected average tree demand is μ4 = 1000 trees and the variability ranges from α=0 to α=500 trees, equivalent to α = [0, μ/2] in terms of the mean demand and the planting rate varies between R = [400,1500] trees, equivalent to R = [2μ/5, μ] in terms of the mean demand. Imports costs are 0.15 units/tree and production costs are 0.0375 (left panel) and 0.1125 units/tree (right panel). https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/figure-1-e1534414686254.jpgFigure 1How does the probability of introducing an exotic pest or disease changes with demand variability when maximum profit is reached? In this scenario the probability of introducing an exotic pest or disease is increased as the demand variability grows. The probability grows faster as the production costs get closer to the import costs.2018-08-17T08:55:55+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2018/08/17/nuevas-estrategias-para-reducir-la-introduccion-de-enfermedades-forestales-exoticas-al-reino-unido/2018-08-16T10:38:32+00:00monthlyhttps://appliedecologistsblog.com/2018/08/13/editors-choice-555/https://appliedecologistsblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/55-5-christopher-o_brien2-e1533808460981.jpg55.5 - Christopher O_Brien2The Carolina pigmy rattlesnake (Sistrurus miliarius miliarius) inhabits the coastal plain of North Carolina, USA.
