Résumé / Abstract
The
phylogeny of the 40 species of the genus Phoracantha is cladistically
analyzed. Phoracantha faunal composition, biogeographic distribution
patterns of species groups, and pest status of economically important
species are described and discussed. Phoracantha is a monophyletic
genus containing all species of the former Tryphocaria. Two large
species groups are recognized and discussed: the rugithoracica-species
group including 8 species, and the acanthocera-species group with 32
species. Subdivisions of 8 species groups under the acanthocera-species
group are identified and discussed. Phoracantha is distributed mostly
in southern Australia and some species are in northern Australia and
New Guinea. The species with a wide natural distribution are more
likely to become pests in Australia and overseas. The species from the
semipunctata-species group can easily survive lengthy shipment,
establish in continents outside Australia, and become serious pests.
The species P. solida and synonyma from the rugithoracica-species group
and P. acanthocera from the acanthocera-species group are more widely
adapted than most other Phoracantha species and have become pests of
Australian Eucalyptus forests. However, the above 3 species may not be
able to survive lengthy shipment in logs.
