PEST RATING PROFILE<\/h3>\n

Initiating Event: <\/strong><\/h5>\n

Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is currently Q-rated.\u00a0 A permanent pest rating proposal is required to support an official pest rating.<\/p>\n

History & Status: <\/strong><\/h5>\n

Background:<\/u><\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is an ambrosia beetle that ranges in length from 3.2 to 3.5 mm and has distinctive yellow and black longitudinal stripes on the elytra (Oranen, 2013).\u00a0 Like other ambrosia beetles, the adults excavate tunnels in wood, and the larvae feed on fungus that grows in these tunnels.\u00a0 This species has been reported to live in deciduous trees, including Alnus<\/em> spp., Fagus sylvatica<\/em>, and Quercus<\/em> spp. (Cebeci and Ayberk, 2010; Henin et al., 2003).\u00a0 This beetle primarily utilizes dead trees, but this can still have an economic impact, as cut timber is damaged through the tunneling of this beetle and the staining by the associated ambrosia fungus (Oranen, 2013).\u00a0 There are also reports of T. signatum<\/em> attacking living trees.\u00a0 For example, ambrosia beetles, including T. signatum<\/em>, were reported to be responsible for large-scale death of beech (Fagus sylvatica<\/em>) trees in Belgium in the early 2000s (Henin et al., 2003).\u00a0 Research suggests that these trees were probably injured prior to beetle attack, and that this prior injury may have been the result of freezing damage.\u00a0 However, later attacks appear to have taken place on healthy trees for unknown reasons (Henin et al., 2003).<\/p>\n

Worldwide Distribution<\/u><\/strong>:<\/u><\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is broadly distributed across the Palearctic Region, from western Europe to south-eastern China (Balachowsky, 1949; Cebeci and Ayberk, 2010; Galko et al., 2014; Henin et al., 2003; Knizek, 2011; \u00a0Oranen, 2013; Ostrauskas and Tamutis, 2012).<\/p>\n

Official Control:<\/u><\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is not known to be under official control anywhere.<\/p>\n

California Distribution: <\/u><\/strong>\u00a0Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is not known to be present in California (Symbiota Collections of Arthropods Network).<\/p>\n

California Interceptions:<\/u><\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>has been intercepted on wood from Europe (PDR # 927924).<\/p>\n

The risk Trypodendron signatum <\/em>would pose to California is evaluated below.<\/p>\n

Consequences of Introduction:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

1) Climate\/Host Interaction:<\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is widely distributed across Europe, from cold, northern areas to the Mediterranean. This beetle is known to feed on Alnus<\/em> and Quercus<\/em> species, which are widely distributed across California.\u00a0 Based on this information, this beetle is likely capable of becoming established over a broad area in California.\u00a0 Therefore, it receives a High (3)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Low (1) Not likely to establish in California; or likely to establish in very limited areas.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Medium (2) may be able to establish in a larger but limited part of California.<\/p>\n

\u2013 High (3) likely to establish a widespread distribution in California.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

2) Known Pest Host Range: <\/strong>Trypodendron signatum<\/em> is known to feed on trees in three genera. Therefore, it receives a Medium (2)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Low (1) has a very limited host range.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Medium (2) has a moderate host range.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 High (3) has a wide host range.<\/p>\n

3) Pest Dispersal Potential:<\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>can fly (Gaubicher et al., 2002). Another species, lineatum<\/em> (Olivier) was found to be capable of moving (presumably by flying) two and a half miles, and T. signatum<\/em> may have similar dispersal ability (Dyer, 1961).\u00a0 In addition, it has been intercepted multiple times on wood entering the United States from Europe, which demonstrates that it is capable of human-aided dispersal (Haack and Rabaglia, 2013).\u00a0 Therefore, it receives a Medium (2)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Low (1) does not have high reproductive or dispersal potential.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Medium (2) has either high reproductive or dispersal potential.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 High (3) has both high reproduction and dispersal potential.<\/p>\n

3) Economic Impact:<\/strong> Trypodendron signatum<\/em> appears to primarily feed and develop in dead or dying trees (including cut wood).\u00a0 Other Trypodendron<\/em> species that have been introduced to western Canada and the western United States have caused damage to logs and lumber, and it is possible that signatum<\/em> could have the same impacts in California (Livingston, 2004; McLean, 1985).\u00a0 There have been reports of T. signatum<\/em> attacking and killing living (potentially injured) trees.\u00a0 Injury to trees that could lead to attack by beetles can result from climate extremes, for instance, drought, or warm weather followed by extreme cold (Henin et al., 2003).\u00a0 The resulting beetle damage could result in lower yield and high production costs for forest products.\u00a0 Trypodendron signatum<\/em> is an ambrosia beetle, so by definition it carries fungus that becomes established in the beetle galleries and is used as a larval food source.\u00a0 There is evidence that the beetle-fungus relationship in a new area (after introduction) can be unpredictable and could include the beetle and its fungal associate being introduced simultaneously, possibly with the fungus developing into a more aggressive form in its new range, as well as the introduced fungus being carried by a native beetle or an introduced beetle becoming associated with (and vectoring) a fungus already present in the new area. \u00a0Therefore, Trypodendron signatum<\/em> receives a High (3)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

Economic Impact:\u00a0 A, B, E<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A. The pest could lower crop yield.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

B. The pest could lower crop value (includes increasing crop production costs).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

C. The pest could trigger the loss of markets (includes quarantines).<\/p>\n

D. The pest could negatively change normal cultural practices.<\/p>\n

E. The pest can vector, or is vectored, by another pestiferous organism.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

F. The organism is injurious or poisonous to agriculturally important animals.<\/p>\n

G. The organism can interfere with the delivery or supply of water for agricultural uses.<\/p>\n

Economic Impact Score: 3<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013 Low (1) causes 0 or 1 of these impacts.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Medium (2) causes 2 of these impacts.<\/p>\n

\u2013 High (3) causes 3 or more of these impacts.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

5) Environmental Impact:<\/strong> As already stated, Trypodendron signatum<\/em> has the potential to kill trees, especially if the trees are stressed or injured. Oaks (Quercus<\/em>) are an important component of many California ecosystems and this genus is known to be fed upon by this beetle.\u00a0 Some of these oak species are rare.\u00a0 Therefore, T. signatum<\/em> receives a High (3)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

Evaluate the environmental impact of the pest on California using the criteria below.<\/p>\n

Environmental Impact: A, B<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

A. The pest could have a significant environmental impact such as lowering biodiversity, disrupting natural communities, or changing ecosystem processes.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

B. The pest could directly affect threatened or endangered species.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

C. The pest could impact threatened or endangered species by disrupting critical habitats.<\/p>\n

D. The pest could trigger additional official or private treatment programs.<\/p>\n

E. The pest significantly impacts cultural practices, home\/urban gardening or ornamental plantings.<\/p>\n

Environmental Impact Score: 3<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013 Low (1) causes none of the above to occur.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Medium (2) causes one of the above to occur.<\/p>\n

\u2013 High (3) causes two or more of the above to occur.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Consequences of Introduction to California for Trypodendron signatum<\/em>: Medium (12)<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Add up the total score and include it here.<\/p>\n

\u2013Low = 5-8 points<\/p>\n

\u2013Medium = 9-12 points<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013High = 13-15 points<\/p>\n

6) Post Entry Distribution and Survey Information:<\/strong> Trypodendron signatum <\/em>is not known to occur in California.\u00a0 It receives a Not established (0)<\/span><\/strong> in this category.<\/p>\n

\u2013Not established (0) Pest never detected in California, or known only from incursions.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013Low (-1) Pest has a localized distribution in California, or is established in one suitable climate\/host area (region).<\/p>\n

\u2013Medium (-2) Pest is widespread in California but not fully established in the endangered area, or pest established in two contiguous suitable climate\/host areas.<\/p>\n

\u2013High (-3) Pest has fully established in the endangered area, or pest is reported in more than two contiguous or non-contiguous suitable climate\/host areas.<\/p>\n

Final Score:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

7) The final score is<\/strong> the consequences of introduction score minus the post entry distribution and survey information score: Medium (12)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Uncertainty:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

There is some uncertainty regarding the possible economic and environmental impact of this species on California.\u00a0 There are many examples that illustrate the unpredictability of bark and ambrosia beetles, and it is apparent that various factors including climate, tree species, and fungus species interact, and that significant economic and\/or environmental damage could result.\u00a0 Climate change could result in a higher frequency of extreme weather events, which could lead to tree stress and increased ambrosia beetle damage.<\/p>\n

Conclusion and Rating Justification:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

This beetle is one of many ambrosia beetles that are thought to feed mostly in dead or dying trees.\u00a0 However, it seems that a cautious approach is best with possible forest pests, especially when there is evidence (as there is in this case) that living trees can be affected.\u00a0 The behavior of this beetle may be very different in California than it is in Europe; it could be significantly worse.\u00a0 The fungus symbiosis raises special concerns, because the beetle could bring with it possibly pathogenic fungi new to California, or it could interact in a new way with fungi already here.\u00a0 For these reasons, an \u201cA\u201d rating is justified.<\/p>\n
