Abstract

Pinhole beetles of 3 species (Xyleborus perforans, X. semiopacus [Xylosandrus crassiusculus] and an unidentified Xyleborus sp.) were observed on logs of Acacia mangium during pruning studies in an industrial plantation at Surigao del Sur, Philippines. The beetles, symptoms of their infestation, and the wood damage they cause are briefly described.
