Abstract
The article provides the results of a 2-year (2019–2020) study of entomofauna of the main forest tree pests conducted by the authors in the forests of several districts of Irkutsk Oblast. The main aim was to collect entomological material at all stages of development for the formation of an entomological collection, mainly insects damaging coniferous trees. There were detected: Siberian conifer silk moth Dendrolimus sibiricus Tschetverikov, 1908 in Kachugsky, Bayandayevsky, Slyudyansky, Shelekhovsky, Irkutsky, Olkhonsky Districts, gypsy moth Lymantria dispar (Linnaeus, 1758) in Olkhonsky District. All the districts of the study contained pine sawyer beetles of the genus Monochamus Dejean, 1821; totally, 5 species were detected: small white-marmorated longhorn beetle Monochamus sutor (Linnaeus, 1758), white mottled sawyer Monochamus urussovi (Fischer, 1806), black pine sawyer beetle Monochamus galloprovincialis (Olivier, 1795), Siberian speckled sawyer Monochamus impluviatus Motschulsky, 1859 and Monochamus saltuarius Gebler, 1830. In the forest of the Slyudyansky District, a quarantine pest – Japanese silver-fir bark beetle Polygraphus proximus Blandford, 1894, was detected under the bark of Siberian fir (Abies sibirica Ledeb.). On Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and Siberian larch (Larix sibirica Ledeb.), there was reported massive colonization of six-toothed bark beetle Ips sexdentatus (Boerner, 1776), larch bark beetle Ips subelongatus (Motschulsky, 1860), on Siberian spruce (Picea obovata Ledeb.) – eight-toothed spruce bark beetle Ips typographus (Linnaeus, 1758).
