Abstract:

Cedrus libani A. Rich., known as Lebanon Cedar or Taurus Cedar, is an important tree species native to the Taurus Mountains in Turkey. Worldwide, the largest forests of C. libani occur in southern Turkey and cover an area of 417.188,5 ha, although relict stands can also be found in the Emirda Mountains of Central Turkey and near the Ak nc and atalan villages of the Black Sea coast, in northern Turkey. Additionally, there are also relict forests in Syria (400 ha) and Lebanon (2,200 ha). Calomicrus apicalis Demaison, 1891 (Col.: Chrysomelidae) is an endemic species and a new pest of Taurus Cedar in Turkey. This insect was found for the first time in Hassa-Akbez forests (Hatay province) in 1891. The populations of C. apicalis have been increasing rapidly since 2000, and from an initial area of 20-30 ha this harmful leaf beetle spread rapidly and nowadays can be found on over 3000 ha of forest, not only in the Taurus Mountains but also in the new plantations/forests in Eastern and Central Anatolia. Beetle attacks have been threatening and affecting the health of young stands of C. libani, as they feed on needles of seedlings and young trees in the spring. The leaves affected by the pest undergo subsequent discoloration then dry up. In this paper we report on the most important aspects of the biology and distribution of this new pest in Turkey, and discuss possibilities of management and control against it. Cedrus libani A. Rich., conhecido como cedro-do-líbano ou cedro-de-taurus, é uma importante espécie florestal nativa das montanhas Taurus, na Turquia. As maiores florestas desta espécie podem encontrar-se no sul da Turquia, cobrindo uma área de 417.188,5 ha, embora florestas-relíquia também possam ser encontradas nas montanhas Emirda no centro da Turquia, e perto de Ak nc e atalan na costa do mar Negro, no norte da Turquia. Adicionalmente, também existem florestas-relíquia na Síria (400 ha) e Líbano (2,200 ha). Calomicrus apicalis Demaison, 1891 (Col.: Chrysomelidae) é um insecto endémico e uma nova praga das florestas de cedro na Turquia. Este insecto foi detectado pela primeira vez em Hassa-Akbez (província de Hatay) em 1891. As popula es de C. apicalis têm aumentado rapidamente desde o ano 2000, e de um foco inicial de 20-30 ha esta praga disseminou-se rapidamente e actualmente afecta mais de 3000 ha de floresta nas montanhas Taurus e em novas planta es no Este e centro da Anatólia. Ataques deste insecto têm amea ado e afectado a sanidade de florestas jovens de C. libani, com os adultos a alimentarem-se nas agulhas de plantas jovens na Primaver
