2 Situation in California First detected in CA in 2003 in Whittier Narrows Since then caught a couple of times in CDFA traps in LA County Caused death of large number of Box Elder street trees in Long Beach in 2010 Problem was not recognized until 2012 when we found it on a backyard avocado tree

3 Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer (Euwallaceae sp.) Female 2.5 mm (0.1 inch) long Male 1.5 mm (0.05 inch) long

4 Beetle Life Cycle and Reproduction Sex ratio of offspring female biased Brothers mate with sisters in galleries Mated females leave the galleries to create their own galleries Female can fly, male usually stay in the gallery

5 Symbiotic Relationship of beetle-fungus Fusarium euwallaceae Female Mycangia Graphium euwallaceae Male Acremonium pembeum

6 Fungal Pathogens Transmitted by PSHB and KSHB Los Angeles Co Orange Co San Bernardino Co Riverside Co Polyphagous Shot Hole Borer PSHB Euwallacea sp. 1 Fusarium euwallaceae Graphium euwallaceae Acremonium pembeum San Diego Co Kuroshio Shot Hole Borer KSHB Euwallacea sp. 5 Fusarium sp.
