Dendroctonus is a genus of bark beetles. It includes several species notorious for destroying trees in the forests of North America. The genus has a symbiotic relationship with many different yeasts, particularly those in the genera Candida and Pichia that aid in digestion and pheromone production.[1]
Species include:
- Dendroctonus adjunctus - roundheaded pine beetle
- Dendroctonus approximatus - Mexican pine beetle
- Dendroctonus armandi - Chinese white pine beetle
- Dendroctonus barberi - southwestern pine beetle[2]
- Dendroctonus brevicomis - western pine beetle
- Dendroctonus frontalis - southern pine beetle
- Dendroctonus jeffreyi - Jeffrey pine beetle
- Dendroctonus mesoamericanus - Mesoamerican pine beetle
- Dendroctonus mexicanus - smaller Mexican pine beetle
- Dendroctonus micans - great spruce bark beetle
- Dendroctonus murrayanae - lodgepole pine beetle
- Dendroctonus parallelocollis - larger Mexican pine beetle
- Dendroctonus ponderosae - mountain pine beetle
- Dendroctonus pseudotsugae - Douglas-fir beetle
- Dendroctonus punctatus - Allegheny spruce beetle
- Dendroctonus rufipennis - spruce beetle
- Dendroctonus rhizophagus - TBD
- Dendroctonus simplex - eastern larch beetle
- Dendroctonus terebrans - black turpentine beetle
- Dendroctonus valens - red turpentine beetle
- Dendroctonus vitei
