The members of this family are among the most dan-gerous of the insect enemies of forest trees. In many cases treesare killed outright, but in others although the life of the tree is nottaken tlie wood is much injured by the burrows. In some cases wedecided that some ash and pine trees had been killed by thesebeetles, but we found by far the greater number on dead or dyingwood.
