- Xyleborus monographus (Fabricius, 1792) Material examined. Guilan province, Astara, 38 ° 20 ′N 48 ° 46 ′E, (2), 19.vi. 2010. New record for Iran. General distribution. Europe, North Africa, Iraq, Turkey. The record from South Korea needs confirmation. Biology. The species breeds primarily in trees of the family Fagaceae (Castanea, Fagus, Quercus), but also in Acer (Sapindaceae) and Ulmus (Ulmaceae) (Stark, 1952, Palm 1959, Schedl 1964). The biology of the species has been studied in detail by Schedl (1964), including information on the immature stages, mycangia, and natural enemies. Markalas and Kalapanida (1997) describe the seasonal flight pattern. The predominant ambrosia fungus is the same as that of Platypus cylindrus and Xyleborus dryographus (Gebhardt et al. 2004). Like many xyleborines, it is attracted to alcohol (Galko et al. 2014). The species can become a pest of cork oak (Quercus suber) after fire or other damage stresses the trees.
