This atlas presents a concrete tool to identify xylophagous
activity by the remains they left in wooded areas in Western
Europe. Xylophagous insects are among the largest predators of
woody tissues. They leave discriminating traces, different for each
species according to their bioecology, and so it is necessary to
know how to recognize and characterize them. The book is a
practical tool to help identify and interpret them through a
standardized presentation of the most ubiquitous families and a key
to their determination. It presents descriptions of the galleries
and of morphometry of the faecal pellets based on macroscopic
features for xylophagous identification, and includes information
about the origin and distribution of the xylophagous biological
cycles, bioclimatic conditions and bioecology, and the type of
woods that are attacked. The book will be a useful guide for forest
managers, heritage conservationists, environmental engineers,
bioarchaeologists, entomologists, loggers, and wood anatomists.
