: | In order to elucidate the fauna of ambrosia beetles (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae and Platypodinae) in natural forests of Shimanto River Basin of Kochi Prefecture, southwestern Japan, we captured them with ethanol traps from April to October 2007 in Ohnaka-yama National Forest, which is one of old-growth natural broad-leaved forests. As a result, 9 species of Scolytinae were recorded. The most abundant species was Scolytoplatypus mikado, followed by Xylosandrus germanus and Xyleborinus saxeseni. |
