An annotated list of the Scolytidae occurring in Australia

Abstract

A review has been made of the Scolytidae recorded from Australia with extensive additional data from Queensland. This includes 92 species in 35 genera. Queensland with 72 species has many more than the other states. Sixty-six species are considered to be endemic to Australia and 52 to Queensland. Locality and host records show that many of the species are widely distributed and are associated with a variety of plants.
