Abstract

The article presents the results of a study of a serious quarantine pest – four-eyed fir bark beetle Polygraphus proximus – in the period from April to September 2022 on the territory of the “Lakes on Snezhnaya” Ecopark (Slyudyansky district, Irkutsk Oblast). The aim of the work was to identify Polygraphus proximus, laying trial plots (TP) to determine its main population indicators and assess the state of fir forest stands. In all biocenoses of the ecopark and its environs, where the forest stand includes Siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.), it recorded the presence of Polygraphus proximus with varying degrees of occurrence. In the study area, coniferous species, in addition to Siberian fir, also grow Siberian spruce (Picea obovata Ledeb.) and Siberian cedar pine (Pinus sibirica Du Tour), no pest was found on these coniferous species during the survey. Two TPs were established, differing in the composition of the forest stand and vegetation cover of the lower tier. The vital state of fir forest stands on the TPs during the study was assessed as weakened and severely weakened, with an average degree of degradation, the occurrence of Polygraphus proximus is high. The flight of beetles in 2022 began in the second decade of May, its peak was recorded in the period from May 26 to June 20. The main population indicators of the invasive bark beetle were determined: population density, productivity, reproduction energy, length of the uterine passage and fecundity. Its wintering stages of development have been established in the conditions of the southern Baikal region in 2021.
