| 摘要 | The Amethyst Cedar Border (Semanotus amethystinus) is native to the Western United States and targets several conifer plants as hosts. Within its native range, it is considered a minor pest as it rarely inflicts damage on living trees. However, instances of this species appearing beyond its natural habitat have been documented, likely due to its inadvertent transportation through lumber or wooden packaging materials. Several countries have recognized both S. amethystinus and its congeners as potential wood pests. In mid-August 2023, a live adult of S. amethystinus was sighted and photographed at Costco Neihu store, Taipei City. This is a new record of the species in Taiwan. The likely means of its arrival was concealed within wood packaging materials. Even though the specimen was not collected, identification can be reliably accomplished using the distinctive diagnostic traits visible in the photographs. Continued monitoring is strongly recommended to ascertain whether S. amethystinus has successfully established a population in Neihu and its nearby areas. |
