“…Recently, a third bark beetle, Scolytus sulcatus, that had not been recorded for many years, was found to be quite widespread. 96 The last is a native species that chiefly lives on apple trees, but also comes on elm, though its role in· the disease, if any, is not much known so far. The disease itself, that is the combination of elm, bark- Collins, 1938.…”

“…Typical host material is 15.0–38.0 cm in diameter but branches as small as 8.0 cm are colonized (Pechuman 1938). …”

“…Pupation occurs within the sapwood and broods overwinter as larvae or adults. The following year, adults emerge and feed at twig crotches before selecting host material (Pechuman 1938; Balachowsky 1949; Baker 1972; Wood 1982). In New York, Scolytus mali has one generation per year although there are two generations per year in Europe (Pechuman 1938).…”

The Nearctic bark beetle genus Scolytus Geoffroy was revised based in part on a molecular and morphological phylogeny. Monophyly of the native species was tested using mitochondrial (COI) and nuclear (28S, CAD, ArgK) genes and 43 morphological characters in parsimony and Bayesian phylogenetic analyses. Parsimony analyses of molecular and combined datasets provided mixed results while Bayesian analysis recovered most nodes with posterior probabilities >90%. Native hardwood- and conifer-feeding Scolytus species were recovered as paraphyletic. Native Nearctic species were recovered as paraphyletic with hardwood-feeding species sister to Palearctic hardwood-feeding species rather than to native conifer-feeding species. The Nearctic conifer-feeding species were monophyletic. Twenty-five species were recognized. Four new synonyms were discovered: Scolytus praeceps LeConte, 1868 (= Scolytus abietis Blackman, 1934; = Scolytus opacus Blackman, 1934), Scolytus reflexus Blackman, 1934 (= Scolytus virgatus Bright, 1972; = Scolytus wickhami Blackman, 1934). Two species were reinstated: Scolytus fiskei Blackman, 1934 and Scolytus silvaticus Bright, 1972. A diagnosis, description, distribution, host records and images were provided for each species and a key is presented to all species.
