A phylogenetic and taxonomic assessment of Afrotropical Micracidini (Coleoptera, Scolytinae) reveals a strong diversifying role for Madagascar
Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Afrotropical bark beetle genera in the tribe Micracidini are revised and an identification key provided. The new classification is based on phylogenetic analyses of five molecular markers (COI, EF-1α, 28S, PABP1, CAD) in ... -
The phylogenetic systematics of Spilomelinae and Pyraustinae (Lepidoptera: Pyraloidea: Crambidae) inferred from DNA and morphology
Mally, Richard; Hayden, James E.; Neinhuis, Christoph; Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Nuss, Matthias (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Spilomelinae and Pyraustinae form a species-rich monophylum of Crambidae (snout moths). Morphological distinction of the two groups has been difficult in the past, and the morphologically heterogenous Spilomelinae has not ... -
Rainforest and cloud forest Scolytodes (Curculionidae, Scolytinae, Hexacolini) from the ALAS inventory in Costa Rica: new species, new synonymy, new records
Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Kirkendall, Lawrence R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-07-11)Quantitative collecting efforts over the last several decades in Costa Rica have resulted in many new species of insects. The Arthropods of La Selva projects included collecting from a typical lowland Neotropical forest ... -
Revision of the genus Phloeoditica Schedl - with description of two new genera and two new species in Phloeosinini (Coleoptera, Curculionidae, Scolytinae)
Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-09-17)The genus Phloeoditica Schedl currently includes four species from Southeast Asia. These species vary substantially in important morphological characters and indicate the existence of multiple genera for these species. A ... -
Sexual dimorphism and phylogenetic position of Chilodendron (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) – a long isolated lineage endemic to Madagascar
Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Chilodendron Schedl, 1953 is resurrected as a valid genus based on Chilodendron planicolle Schedl, 1953. This is the only representative of the tribe Hylesinini Erichson, 1836 found on Madagascar and a molecular phylogenetic ... -
The smallest known species of Afrotropical Scolytoplatypus Schaufuss (Curculionidae, Scolytinae) - with unique features and an isolated phylogenetic position
Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-04-10)Recent flight intercept trapping in Gabon provided four female specimens of a new species of Scolytoplatypus Schaufuss with several unusual features. It is the smallest known Afrotropical species found to date (1.6 mm ... -
Two sympatric lineages of Australian Cnestus solidus share Ambrosiella symbionts but not Wolbachia
Bickerstaff, James R. M.; Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Riegler, Markus (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Sympatric lineages of inbreeding species provide an excellent opportunity to investigate species divergence patterns and processes. Many ambrosia beetle lineages (Curculionidae: Scolytinae) reproduce by predominant inbreeding ... -
Type of broadleaf forest matters most for ptyctimous mite communities (Acari, Oribatida) in Norway
Seniczak, Anna; Niedbała, Wojciech; Iturrondobeitia, J. Carlos; Seniczak, Stanislaw; Roth, Steffen; Jordal, Bjarte Henry (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)We studied ptyctimous moss mites, which are characteristic of forest habitats, in Norwegian broadleaf forests considered as biodiversity hotspot areas in Fennoscandia. The study aimed to evaluate the effect of different ...
