Abstract
(excerpt)
Successful protection of elm trees can only be accomplished by means of thorough understanding of the feeding behavior of the smaller European elm bark beetle, Scolytus multistriatus (Marsham). Wolfenbarger and Buchanan (1939) and Whitten (1958) noted that most feeding occurred in the outer portion of the upper crown region, but offered no quantitative data. Therefore, this study was initiated to investigate the regional distribution of feeding injuries along a vertical and horizontal gradient in native American elm, Ulmus americana L.
