Xyleborini is the largest tribe of Scolytinae accounting for about 1300 species worldwide; all species are primarily xylomycetophagous, developing on symbiotic fungi farmed in plant woody tissues. Xyleborini wood-boring action, associated with the inoculum of symbiotic fungi, can lead, sometimes, to the emergence of host plant dieback, wood damage and death; for this reason, multiple Xyleborini are major pests on both cultivated, forest and ornamental trees. Many Xyleborini are invasive worldwide and great effort is expended to manage their biological invasions or prevent new arrivals. Imports of host plants often have a primary role as a pathway for introduction and are frequently responsible for the establishment of species in non-native environments. In this context, data availability on Xyleborini host plants is a major limiting factor in the development of effective detection and monitoring strategies as well as a fundamental variable to consider in risk assessment of plant pests and invasive species. This contribution provides updated host records and the hosts economic categorization for the 1293 Xyleborini known worldwide to date.
Xyleborini 是 Scolytinae 中最大的部落，约占全世界 1300 种；所有物种主要以木质部真菌为食，在植物木质组织中饲养共生真菌。Xyleborini 的蛀木行为与共生真菌的接种物有关，有时会导致寄主植物衰退、木材损害和死亡；因此，多种 Xyleborini 是栽培、森林和观赏树木的主要害虫。许多 Xyleborini 是全球性的入侵物种，人们付出了巨大的努力来管理它们的生物入侵或防止新物种的到来。寄主植物的进口通常是引入的主要途径，并且经常是在非本地环境中建立物种的原因。在这种情况下，有关 Xyleborini 寄主植物的数据可用性是制定有效检测和监测策略的主要限制因素，也是评估植物害虫和入侵物种风险的基本变量。本贡献提供了迄今为止全球已知的 1293 种 Xyleborini 的更新寄主记录和寄主经济分类。
