Abstract
The bark beetle Scolytus laevis Chapuis, 1869 is reported breeding on Beech Fagus sylvatica L. in Worcestershire which is a novel host-tree genus for Scolytus spp. in Britain. The habitat is discussed, the larval galleries illustrated and observations on identification of the adult beetles are provided which it is hoped may assist future studies.
