Description

Body length is about 1.9 to 2.8 mm. The elytral summit is armed by two pairs of large denticles. Pronotum as long as wide where the basal half is punctate. Elytral declivity weakly bisulcate. Elytral interstriae 1, 3 to 6 are flat to weakly convex. This gives the finely sculptured appearance for the declivity. [4]

A polyphagous species, it is found from many host plants. [5]

<i>Euwallacea fornicatus</i> Species of beetle

Euwallacea fornicatus is a species complex consisting of multiple cryptic species of ambrosia beetles, known as an invasive species in California, Israel and South Africa. The species has also been unintentionally introduced into exotic greenhouses in several European countries. As the rest of the ambrosia beetles, E. fornicatus larvae and adults feed on a symbiotic fungus carried in a specific structure called mycangium. In E. fornicatus, the mycangium is located in the mandible. The combination of massive numbers of beetles with the symbiotic fungus kills trees, even though the fungus alone is a weak pathogen.
