request to forward
by Francois Mayer
Dear Madam/Sir,
I have a message to transmit to the division 2 IUFRO members. Could you
forward it?
Thank you
« Dear colleagues,
we are studying the phylogeography of two bark beetles by nuclear markers.
In order to proceed with our study, we are looking for Ips typographus and
Dendroctonus micans from Europe and Asia. We are also interested in the
ulstraspecific predator Rhizophagus grandis, often found in the galleries of
D. micans.
Would it be possible for you to send me beetles (put alive in alcohol 100%)
?
We can provide the material if necessary (eppendorfs and ethyl alcohol) and
will naturally cover any related expenses.
We need the location where the samples were collected and eventually the
tree specie attacked (Picea sp.or Pinus sp.).
We need around then individuals by country, preferentially catched in
different sites but we will be grateful with any beetles found.
Sample could be sent to:
