The objectives of this study were to determine: 1)
differences in average wood quality and strength properties
of clear-wood specimens sampled from juvenile, transition,
and mature wood zones in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii
(Mirb.) Franco) trees from known forest sites; 2)
relationships among wood quality properties [specific

The adults do little or no damage, although there are some anecdotal reports that they can damage certain crops (e.g., grapes and stone fruits) by feeding on flowers.

The natural fall of trees in riparian areas is an important source of coarse woody debris for mountain streams, improving fish habitat and influencing stream morphology. Existing models consider the probability of coarse woody debris entering a stream channel based upon trees having a random direction of fall without consideration...
