Abstract
The mycobiota of the beetles of the phloem-feeding spruce bark beetle, <i>Ips typographus</i> was studied. The most important group of fungi were the ophiostomatoid fungi. Among them <i>O. penicillatum</i> was very frequent ophiostomatoid species. Other common fungi were <i>O. ainoae, O. bicolor, O. piceaperdum and O. piceae</i>. The ophiostomatoid fungi were often more frequent in beetles collected in galleries than in the beetles caught With a trap. Generally the ophiostomatoid fungi were more ofien isolated from the beetle.s bathed in sterile water for 30 seconds. However <i>C. polonica, O. ainoae</i>, and <i>O. minutum</i> occurred most abundantly in the beetles disinfected in 96% ethyl alcohol for 15 and 30 seconds.
