“…Ctenarytaina spatulata has been present in Europe since 2003 (Valente et al, 2004). Its favoured host trees are not common in Israel and its performance on E. camaldulensis is poor (Queiroz et al, 2010). Two species of Eucalyptus snout beetles occur in Europe.…”

http://www.eje.cz planted in the Israeli low-altitude arid and semiarid lands. These stands form recreation areas, green belts surrounding neighbourhoods and agricultural areas, used for watershed management, sources of food for honeybees and a major source of timber and fi rewood. To date, Eucalyptus forests cover about 11,000 ha, half of which is planted with E. camaldulensis and much of the rest with E. gomphocephala DC (27%) and E. occidentalis Endl. (12%), the latter predominantly in desert or semi desert areas in the Negev (Fig. 1) (Anonymous, 2017). Some ninety-six species of Eucalyptus comprising between 2.5-5% of the total number of ornamental trees planted in public urban areas (about 25,000 ha) (Heller et al., 2017), 90% of which consist of E. camaldulensis (Nazarian, 2016). A number of species of insects from the native range of Eucalyptus in Australia have been unintentionally introduced into Eucalyptus-growing regions throughout the world. An increasing number of insects native to the territories where Eucalyptus trees were planted outside Australia, especially in the southern hemisphere, have shifted onto these trees and achieved pest status (Paine et al., 2011). By the late 19th century, Eucalyptus forests were being planted in most of the Mediterranean Basin. Currently, three species, E. camaldulensis, E. globulus and E. gomphocephala, dominate the areas planted in the Western Mediterranean

Insect pests in tropical forestry

Since the publication of the first edition of this book in 2001, there have been several significant developments in forestry and forest entomology in the tropics that warranted inclusion in a second edition. One is the emergence of new pest species associated either with the expansion of plantation forestry into new regions or marginal areas, or a gradual adaptation by indigenous species to exotic hosts or the rapid spread of new invasives. The South American carpenterworm, Chilecomadia valdiviana, in Chile, and the South African goat moth, Coryphodema tristis, are examples of emerging indigenous pests associated with the establishment and expansion of exotic Eucalyptus spp. plantations in these countries. The blue gum chalcid, Leptocybe invasa, and the erythrina gall wasp, Quadrastichus erythrinae, are recent examples of the rapid worldwide spread of an invasive insect, similar to that which occurred for the leucaena psyllid, Heteropsylla cubana, in the 1980s and 1990s. The biology, ecology and impact of these, and many additional pest species, are discussed in an expanded Chapter 5.Another development has been the growing awareness of the 'true' global impact of forest invasive species as losses have been better quantified. Damage worldwide has been estimated at several billion US dollars per year, even without taking into account the loss of non-market value, which may well exceed that figure. This has prompted a range of international responses, including the formation of networks and surveillance programmes to provide early warning of incursions of forest invasives and the development of international standards for phytosanitary measures, such as that for wood packaging material, as discussed in Chapter 9. The global increase in self-help schemes such as plant clinics and field schools is also discussed. A range of new technologies has enhanced the accuracy and efficiency of forest health surveys over the past decade. These include the use of geographic information system-global positioning system interface tools and handheld computers to assist navigation and data collection in the field, and the application of digital, remotely sensed imagery to detect and classify damaged forest canopies. There have also been significant advances in the use of semiochemicals, including pheromones, for the detection and monitoring of forest pests and for controlling pest populations by means of mass trapping, lure and kill, lure and infect and mating disruption.One of the fundamental principles underlying this book is that the prevention of problems is far better than attempts at cures. The book is not in any way designed to be a manual of pest management. Instead, it presents concepts and examples of tropical forest viii Preface insects, their ecology, impact and control approaches where appropriate, and we hope that individual readers will make the connection between the generalities in the book and their own situation, socio-economic position and appropriate technologies. Some situations or examples have been revisited...

“…Its trees occur in the Australian regions of New South Wales, Queensland, and Victoria (WALLIS, 1970;BEAN, 2013), having the most extensive latitudinal distribution of its genus (BOLAND et al, 2006). Also, such species is found in the United States (FOELKEL;BARRICHELO;MILANEZ, 1975;ROCKWOOD, 2012), Mexico (FOROUGHBAKHCH et al, 2017), Brazil (SILVA et al, 2007;QUEIROZ et al, 2010;MENTONE et al, 2011;SEGUNDINHO et al, 2015), Argentina (VILLAS BÔAS et al, 2009), Colombia (LÓPEZ; BARRIOS; TRINCADO, 2015), India (SHARMA et al, 2005;VARGHESE et al, 2008;CHEZHIAN et al, 2010), and Nigeria (ADEGBEHIN; OKOJIE; NOKOE, 1988) as well as in Ecuador, Uruguay, Chile, Guyana, South Africa, Portugal and Turkey (FAO/UN, 1981). Greater preferences in plantations are due to its fast growth, wide adaptability to varied weather conditions, and high drought resistance (RAO et al, 2002), being among the main cultivated eucalypts in Brazil (QUEIROZ et al, 2010).…”

Sixteen properties of Eucalyptus Tereticornis wood for structural uses

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Forest Red Gum eucalypt provides a versatile wood and is converted into different purposes. However, such wood is somewhat limited in structural ends, which highlights the need to exploit this gap through diffusion of mechanical properties of such timber. Obtained results should assist engineers and architects in decision-making for its best building application. This paper studied two physical and fourteen mechanical properties evaluation of Eucalyptus tereticornis at two different moisture contents, following the prescriptions of Brazilian (ABNT NBR 7190: 1997) and North American (ASTM D-143-14: 2014) standard documents. Thus, 1091 repeats were carried out for all properties. By a moisture reduction from 30% to 12%, the bulk density and eleven strength properties statistically showed changes such as modulus of rupture (static bending, parallel and perpendicular compressions), modulus of elasticity (perpendicular compression and static bending), shear stress, tangential cleavage, and parallel and perpendicular hardnesses. Then, the Eucalyptus tereticornis timber could be better usable if is further applied for structural construction uses.
