Beetles of Richmond
Since 1995, Dr. L.M. Humble of the Canadian Forest Service of Natural Resources Canada has operated baited multiple funnel traps on a discontinuous basis in the Richmond Nature Park as part of a detection program for invasive species in urban areas. Since that time more than 20,000 beetle specimens have been collected from the park. While the detection program is focused on development of detection tools for and early detection of bark and wood-boring species of beetles in the families Anobiidae, Bostrichidae, Buprestidae, Cerambycidae, Curculionidae, Oedemeridae, Platypodidae and Scolytidae moving in international trade, beetle species from other families are occasionally captured. It should be noted that the majority of non-target beetle species captured in the traps have not been identified to species, thus this list is only a partial list of the beetles captured in multiple funnel traps.
