Hi! You can call me BuNTy! I joined Wikipedia on 2 September, 2014. Editing on Wikipedia happened by a freak incident as I chanced upon the edit this page tab at the top of the page. The concept sounded cool for me as I was getting the opportunity of adding content to improve any article's quality that I had the understanding of. The rest is for you to see.
The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus), is a species of bark beetle in the true weevil family, Curculionidae. It is found in Europe and Asia Minor and east to China, Japan, North Korea and South Korea. Bark beetles are so named because they reproduce in the inner bark, living and dead phloem tissues, of trees. Their preferred trees in which to reside include spruces, firs, pines and larches. The species has the ability to spread quickly over large areas and some scientists hypothesize that long-distance movements originating from the Iberian Peninsula may have contributed to its invasion of northern Norway spruce forests. This female European spruce bark beetle was photographed in Naninne in the province of Namur, Belgium.
