Question

Answer

Hello Fran. For sure it is genus Scolytus. In our conditions (Slovakia) very common on plums is Scolytus rugulosus (very small) or S. mali (much bigger). The differences betwen them you can see in our education video here https://youtu.be/i7rhrl33wEM. From your photo I am not able to determine which species it is. All the best, Juraj.

Answer

Dear Benedetta, thank you for your question. The picture shows an imago – an adult moth named Dysgonia algira. It is not considered a pest; the larvae usually live on willows or raspberries. Best regards, M. Zubrik

Question

I often see this type of leaf mine on black poplar (Populus nigra), but also on Populus nigra cv. Italica. I noticed it a few weeks ago, but all the leaf mines are already empty. Sometimes I only find the initial short, light green gallery, while the blotch part has already has detached (e.g. here: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/311079069). In the attached photo you can still see the whole leaf mine (both parts). Do you think *Japanagromyza salicifolii* is the culprit? I’m uncertain, since I couldn’t find any records of this species from Central Europe.

Answer

Dear Sajti, thank you for your very interesting question. Under the bark of young poplar shoots there is a mine – the tissue has been eaten by the larva of a small moth. Several species can behave in a similar way, but in your case it is most likely the species Phyllocnistis extrematrix. Wishing you a nice day, best regards, M. Zúbrik

Nezistila som nijaké poškodenie stromu, keďže škodca sa nachádzal na drevenej soche. Posielam Vám to pre istotu, že tento hmyz sa tu nachádza.

Answer

Dobrý deň, je to samička fuzáča - vrzúnik pralesový Monochamus sartor. Larva sa vyvíja v mŕtvom ihličnatom dreve s kôrou, vo vašej soche dokončil vývoj a vyletel. Rezivo bez kôry a iné sochy nie sú ohrozené.  S pozdravom J. Vakula
