Sulcatol and Fuscumol Increase Catches of Leptostylus asperatus and Styloleptus biustus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in Ethanol-Baited Traps

Detection programs for nonnative bark and woodboring beetles at ports of entry are critical in mitigating the potential effects of invasive species (Poland and Rassati 2019, J. Pest 92: 37–49). Complex blends of lures in a single trap can be used for detecting multiple species of Cerambycidae (Coleoptera) at the same time, providing significant cost savings in terms of trap purchases and deployment Complex lure blends also can be used to assess the biodiversity of woodboring beetles in forest stands, providing opportunities to assess the effects of climate change and invasive species 2015, Agric. Entomol. Wickham However, managers should be aware of any possible reduction in efficacy for detecting a target species when using blends, as some lures can interrupt the attraction of some species (Miller et 2119, J. Econ. Entomol. 110: 2119–2128).
