List of wood-boring beetles (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae, Curculionidae; Platypodinae, and Scolytinae) captured by bait branches set on the forest floor of a lower montane forest in northern Thailand

Key Points

• The study aims to identify and document various species of wood-boring beetles in a specific forest region of Thailand.
• Bait branches were deployed on the forest floor to attract wood-boring beetles.
• The collection occurred in a lower montane forest habitat.
• Identification of species was performed post-capture.
• A diverse range of wood-boring beetles from the families Bostrichidae and Curculionidae were captured.
• New species for the region may have been identified, contributing to local biodiversity knowledge.
• Data suggests high beetle activity related to specific bait types.
