Invasive Pest Risk Maps: Mediterranean Pine Engraver - Orthotomicus erosus

These risk maps for economically and ecologically important invasive species provide land managers with information to assess the potential for species introduction, establishment, and landscape susceptibility.

Established populations of the Mediterranean Pine Engraver (Orthotomicus erosus) were discovered in the United States in 2004. This Eurasian bark beetle is native to the pine (Pinus) growing areas of Europe, Northern Africa and Asia.

Sample Areas were developed using the Susceptibility Surface. A total of 1,200 sample areas were assigned to one of four risk categories. Relative certainties were assigned to each category in order to create increasing plot intensifications for increasing risk stratums.
