Abstract
Over the past 175 years, 10 species of exotic longhorn beetles have become established in New Zealand. Despite considerable increases in travel and transport of goods and materials throughout this time, the rate of establishment of exotic longhorn beetles in New Zealand shows no associated pattern. What is notable, although not surprising, is the high percentage of species that originate from Australia. These are mostly Eucalyptus feeders, which are presented with ample resources in New Zealand. These 10 Cerambycidae species are presented and discussed.
期刊介绍:
The invertebrate diversity of New Zealand is of great interest worldwide because of its geographic isolation and geological history. The New Zealand Entomologist plays an important role in disseminating information on field-based, experimental, and theoretical research.
The New Zealand Entomologist publishes original research papers, review papers and short communications. We welcome submissions in all aspects of science regarding insects and arthropods in a New Zealand or Australasian setting. The journal’s subject matter encompasses taxonomy, phylogenetics, biogeography, biological control and pest management, conservation, ecology and natural history.
The journal is the official publication of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. Papers published or submitted elsewhere for publication will not be considered, but publication of an abstract or summary elsewhere (e.g. conference proceedings) does not preclude full publication in the New Zealand Entomologist. Accepted papers become copyright of the Entomological Society of New Zealand. The journal is published in English, but we also welcome publication of abstracts in Maori.
