Summary: | The aim of the study was to determine which kinds of insects had infected the Norway spruce ( (L.) H. Karst.) in different stands killed by flooding caused by beavers ( Kuhl), and if there was any danger that they would subsequently cause damage in the surrounding forests. The effect of tree diameter and certain stand characteristics on the fauna of dead trees are discussed. The occurrence of different insect combinations and qualifications for their coexistence were studied.Picea abiesCastor canadensisPityogenes chalcographusTrypodendron lineatum Hylurgops palliatusDryocetes autographusIps typographus |
