Abstract Traps baited with Seudenol + ’a-pinene caught 87 percent more 


eastern larch beetles, Dendroctonus simplex LeConte , than did 
tamarack logs infested with females. Male beetles responded to 
the synthetic attractant in greater numbers than females. Male 
beetles were not attracted to frontalin, a principal attractant 
of the closely related Douglas-fir beetle, Dendroctonus 
pseudotsugae Hopkins. Attraction was reduced by 92 and 86 Pees 
cent by addition of methylcylohexenone (MCH) and frontalin but ‘ 
by only 36 percent when trans-verbenol was added. This evidence 
partially supports the taxonomic separation of the two

Pesticide 
Statement 


Introduction 


This publication reports research involving pesticides. It 
does not contain recommendations for their use, nor does it 
imply that the uses discussed have been registered. All uses 
of pesticides must be registered by appropriate State and/or 
Federal agencies before they can be recommended. 


CAUTION: Pesticides can be injurious to humans, domestic 
animals, desirable plants, and fish or other wildlife--if they 
are not handled or applied properly. Use all pesticides 
selectively and carefully. Follow recommended practices for 
the disposal of surplus pesticides and pesticide containers. 


The eastern larch beetle, Dendroctonus simplex LeConte, is a pri- 
mary pest of tamarack, Larix laricina (DuRoi) K. Koch, in western 
Canada and Alaska. Beetles normally attack tamarack stands that 
have been weakened, in some instances by defoliation during 
outbreaks of the larch sawfly, Pristiphora erichsonii (Hartig), 
or larch budmoth, Zeiraphera improbana (Walker). ‘The beetles 
readily attack green, healthy tamarack when the parent population 
increases above the carrying capacity of the initially attacked 
trees. Infested trees seldom survive. 


The presence of unmated females in a recently attacked tree 
intensifies the attractiveness of the host tree to male beetles. 
Although no aggregative pheromones have been isolated from 

D. simplex females, experiments have shawn that males are 
attracted to female-infested bolts and to Seudenol (3-methy1-2- 
cyclohexen-l-ol) (Baker et al. 1977). Seudenol (Vite' et al. 
1972), frontalin (Kinzer et al. 1971), and trans-~werbenol 
(Rudinsky et al. 1972) have been identified as aggregative 
pheromones of the Douglas-fir beetle, D. pseudotsugae Hopkins. 
In addition, methylcyclohexenone (MCH) was identified as an anti- 
aggregative pheromone in D. pseudotsugae (Kinzer et al. 1971). 


D. simplex and D. A are taxonomically similar (Wood 


‘1963, Furniss 1976) and could produce similar aggregative and 


anti-aggregative pheromones. A field test was conducted to assess 
the effect of frontalin, MCH, and trans-verbenol on the natural 


attractant of D. simple “

Methods 


A field test was conducted for 6 days in June 1978 in an 
80-yr-old open tamarack stand on the Bonanza Creek Experimental 
Forest 42 km west of Fairbanks, Alaska. Tree height varied from 
1.8 to 9.0 mwith d.b.h. between 2.5 and 15.0 cm. Temperatures 
ranged from 2° to 27°C during the test. 


Cylindrical sticky traps ‘similar to those described by Kline 

et al. (1974) were baited with the test materials. The traps 
were set on iron posts 1.5 m above the ground at 30-m intervals. 
The traps measured 45 cm in length, 25 cm in diameter, and were 
constructed of 6.35-mm mesh wire screen. Two replications of 23 
traps each were used in a randomized complete block design. 
Twenty-three treatments were assigned to the traps each day for 
6 days in a randomized manner. Days were treated as subsamples, 
and the 6-day data were pooled for each treatment per replicate. 
In addition, the test site of each replication was moved a 
distance of at least 60 m to a new location in order to eliminate 
the effects of spillover of beetles from the attractant-baited 
traps into adjacent live tamarack trees, thus creating an addi- 
tional attractive source. 


Treatments consisted of tamarack logs infested with females and 
the synthetic pheromones: Seudenol, frontalin, trans-verbenol, 
and MCH, alone and in combination with each other as shown in 
table 1. Controls consisted of an empty trap and an uninfested 
log section. The sources of natural attractant were tamarack 
log sections, ca. 9 cm in length and 9-cm in diameter, 
artificially infested by unmated female beetles. Freshly cut 
tamarack logs were infested in the laboratory 1 day before 
testing. 

Part of the experiment utilized tamarack logs infested with 
unmated D. pseudotsugae females transported to Alaska from Idaho. 
The attractants produced by D. pseudotsugae were tested to deter- 
mine if D. simplex responded to a taxonomically similar species. 
These beetles were stored for 1 week at 5°C and then placed 

at 22°C for 2 days before infesting the logs. D. simplex 

female beetles were treated similarly. One female beetle was 
placed in each of five preformed entrance holes in each log; 
i.e., five female beetles per log, the holes were covered with 
metal screen, and the log enclosed in a metal screen cage to 
exclude wild male beetles because mating would terminate the 
production of attractants by the females in the infested logs. 


The synthetic pheromones were 1 ml each of Seudenol, frontalin, 
trans-verbenol and MCH in open 1/2-dram glass vials placed 
within perforated aluminum cans attached to the traps. Alpha 
pinene in l-ml quantities was used as a synergist to Seudenol.

Results and 
Discussion 


The commercial preparations of synthetic pheromones were purified 
by preparatory gas-liquid chromatography (Birch et al. 1977) to 
>99.8 percent using 4-percent Carbowax 20 M on Chromsorb G 

(60/80 mesh) in a 6-m X 6.3-mm glass column. 


The catches of D. simplex: adults by treatment are shown in 

table 1. Response by D. simplex shows that some treatments were 
attractive but others repressed attraction. Seudenol + a-pinene 
caught 505 beetles or 40 percent of the total catch (1,273 
beetles). The next best catch was Seudenol + a-pinene + trans- 
verbenol with 327 beetles or 26 percent of the total catch. logs 
with D. simplex females caught only 7 percent of the beetles. 


The untreated log, a-pinene alone, and in combination with 
either frontalin or trans-verbenol were not attractive to either 
male or female beetles. Renwick (1970) has hypothesized that 
trans-verbenol enhances the attraction of those-Dendroctonus 
species that are attracted to pinene because it is similar \ 
chemically. The Pere that both a-pinene and trans-verbenol were 
not attractive to D. simplex supports this hypothesis. 


The logs containing D. simplex females caught 39 percent more 
beetles than logs with D. pseudotsugae females. The reason for 
the difference in attractiveness betwéen taxonomically similar 
Dendroctonus species could be the production of frontalin by D. 
pseudotsugae females which in our study actually repressed 
attraction. Possibly D. simplex uses a different combination of 


pheromones than D. pseudotsugae. 


The addition.of trans-~erbenol, frontalin, and MCH either sepa- 
rately or in combinations to Seudenol + a-pinene significantly 
repressed attraction by D. simplex adults. The addition of MCH 
to Seudenol +'a-pinene depressed response of D. simplex by 

92 percent whereas the addition of frontalin alone and trans- 
verbenol alone depressed response by 86 and 36 percent respec- 
tively. D. simplex response was further depressed (97 percent ) 
when MCH, trans-verbenol and frontalin were all combined with 
Seudenol + a-pinene. Reduced catches were also reported for D. 
pseudotsugae when MCH and trans-verbenol were added to fronta- 
lin (Rudinsky et al. 1972). 


The frontalin +a-pinene and frontalin + untreated log were the 
only treatments which caught (eight specimens) the bark beetle 
predator, Thanasimus dubius (L.). Orthotomicus caelatus Eichoff 
and Pityopthorus opaculus LeConte were the only other scolytids 
caught. Most O. caelatus were caught on the 2 D. simplex-baited 
traps while most P. st P. opaculus was caught on the 2 D. pseudotsugae 
log (ID), the untreated control log, and the frontalin + untreated 
log.

Sonclusions Combinations of synthetic attractants caught more D. simplex 
beetles than the beetle's natural attractant. Seudenol + 
a-pinene caught significantly more beetles than female-infested 
tamarack logs. The addition of MCH and frontalin to Seudenol + 
a-pinene significantly repressed attraction. The addition of 
trans-verbenol to Seudenol + 4-pinene repressed attraction to a 
much lesser amount than MCH and frontalin. 


The results of this field study add support to the taxonomic dif- 
ferences that tend to separate D. simplex and D. pseudotsugae. 

D. simplex was not attracted to frontalin, which is a principal 
component of the aggregation system of D. pseudotsugae. 


The pheromone components used in the aggregation system of D. 
simplex should be isolated and identified in order to further 
study the feasibility of using MCH or frontalin for controlling 
small isolated infestations of D. simplex.
