The following species should be excluded from Leningrad (St.Petersburg) Province faunal lists (Mandelshtam, Popovichev, 2000):
Hylastes ater (Paykull, 1800) (indicated by Osten-Saken, 1857; Obert, 1876; Gornostaev, 1916),
Hylastes attenuatus Erichson, 1836 (unpublished),
Hylastes linearis Erichson, 1836 (indicated by Osten-Saken, 1857 with reference to Motschulsky, Catalogue Manual),
Polygraphus griseus Eggers, 1923 (unpublished, misidentified specimens are present in B.V. Sokanovsky collection, Moscow Zoological Museum),
Cryphalus piceae (Ratzeburg, 1837) (indicated indirectly by Krivolutskaja, 1965),
Trypophloeus spiculatus Eggers, 1927 (indicated by Stark, 1952),
Pityophthorus pityographus (Ratzeburg, 1837) (indicated by Osten-Saken, 1857; Obert, 1876).
Two questionable species are treated here as synonyms:
Hylurgops starki Eggers, 1933 - is the junior synonym of Hylastes cunicularius Erichson, 1836 and
Crypturgus subcribrosus Eggers, 1932 - is a synonym of Crypturgus cinereus (Herbst, 1793).
Several species are not yet found in Leningrad Province (Mandelshtam, Popovichev, 2000) despite theirs presence was reported for neighboring regions, i.e. Finalnd or Estonia:
Lymantor aceris (Lindemann, 1875),
Xyleborinus saxesenii (Ratzeburg, 1837),
Trypophloeus granulatus (Ratzeburg, 1837),
Gnathotrichus materiarius (Fitch, 1858).
The references like: «Stark, 1952, indirectly» means the published indication «all taiga zone» with the simultaneous presence of the considered species specimens from Leningrad Province or neighboring regions in Zoological Institute collections trapped earlier than the monograph "Fauna of the USSR" (1952) by V.N. Stark was published and probably seen by V.N. Stark during his work.
All records by Hummel are dated by 1821, despite different dates of his «Essais entomologique» separate issues appearance.
Only commonly used in past and far not all synonyms of Scolytidae are included in the table.
The synonymy of the bark-beetles and the dates of the species description are given according to monograph by Pfeffer (1994) with some corrections in dates and synonymy according to world-wide Catalogue of Scolytidae (Wood and Bright, 1992).
Only the trees growing in Leningrad (St. Petersburg) Province and serving as hosts for bark-beetles in the region are included into list of bark-beetle host plants. This list does not include all posibles host-plants of individual bark-beetle species.
More detailed overview of the Leningrad (St. Petersburg) fauna of Scolytidae you can find in the following paper:
Mandelshtam M.Yu., Popovichev B.G. Annotated List of Bark-Beetles (Coleoptera, Scolytidae) of Leningrad Province. Entomological Review, 2000. Vol. 80. N 8. P. 200-216. (Translated from Entomologicheskoye Obozrenye, 2000. Vol. 79. N 3. - P.599-618., English translation is available as preprint).
Some addtions and corrections are done in the current list compared to the published version of the paper.
