Specificity of the beetle-fungus relationship has rarely been examined, and simple vertical transmission of a specific fungal cultivar by each beetle species is often assumed in literature. We report repeated evolution of fungal crop stealing, termed mycocleptism, among ambrosia beetles. The mycocleptic species seek brood galleries of other species, and exploit their established fungal gardens by tunneling through the ambient mycelium-laden wood. Instead of carrying their own fungal sybmbionts, mycocleptae depend on adopting the fungal assemblages of their host species, as shown by an analysis of fungal DNA from beetle galleries. The evidence for widespread horizontal exchange of fungi between beetles challenges the traditional concept of ambrosia fungi as species-specific symbionts. Fungus stealing appears to be an evolutionarily successful strategy. It evolved independently in several beetle clades, two of which have radiated, and at least one case was accompanied by a loss of the beetles' fungus-transporting organs. We demonstrate this using the first robust phylogeny of one of the world's largest group of ambrosia beetles, Xyleborini.10aXyleborini1 aHulcr, Jiri1 aCognato, Anthony, I.  uhttps://weevil.myspecies.info/repeated-evolution-crop-theft-fungus-farming-ambrosia-beetles05186nas a2200589   4500008004100000020002500041245015100066210006900217260001000286300000900296490000900305520329900314653003203613653003203645653002903677653002303706653001003729653002303739653002203762653001703784653002803801653001803829653002203847653002403869653001503893653002703908653002403935653002103959653002303980653002704003653002804030653002704058653002204085653002604107653001504133653002104148653002304169653002404192653002304216653001504239653002304254653002304277653002304300653001604323653002304339653002704362653001504389653002304404100001604427700001804443856013504461       2010                        eng d  a1175-5326; 1175-533400aNew genera of Palaeotropical Xyleborini (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) based on congruence between morphological and molecular characters0 aNew genera of Palaeotropical Xyleborini Coleoptera Curculionidae  c8 Dec  a1-330 v27173 aAs part of an ongoing genus-level revision of Xyleborini (Coleoptera, Curculionidae: Scolytinae), we combined a recent molecular phylogenetic analysis of the tribe (Cognato et al., 2011) with extensive analysis of morphological characters (over 44,000 representatives of 281 putative species of Xyleborini examined, including 264 types).
