80. Ips Pine Bark Beetle G. Keith Douce, Associate Professor of Entomology, The University of georgia.Order Coleoptera Family Scolytidae. Univ. GA, coop. ext. Serv., Col. Agr. http://www.barkbeetles.org/ips/ips.html

Ips pine bark beetle Order Coleoptera G. Keith Douce , Associate Professor of Entomology, The University of Georgia Order Coleoptera: Family Scolytidae Importance Ips beetles are commonly found throughout the South. They usually attack injured or stressed trees, freshly felled trees or logging slash. Infestations are frequently initiated in trees stressed by lightning, logging injury or fire damage. Ips beetles usually attack and kill only one-to-a-few trees in a location. However, in areas in which trees have undergone severe drought stress, ice or wind/hail damage, they frequently buildup large populations and may kill large numbers of trees. Ips beetles are second only to the southern pine beetle in the number of trees killed by southern forest insects. Hosts: Ips beetles attack the major pine species grown in the South. Evidence: Depending upon which of the four Ips Ips pitch tubes are ½ inch-or-less in diameter are formed as resin exuded as a defense against the beetles boring through the tree bark hardens.
