This atlas presentsa concrete tool to identify xylophagous activity by the remains they left in wooded areas in Western Europe. Xylophagous insectsare 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. Thebook 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, heritageconservationists, environmental engineers, bioarchaeologists, entomologists, loggers, and wood anatomists.
