Ips subelongatus
Ips subelongatus, known generally as larch bark beetle or oblong bark beetle, is a species of typical bark beetle in the family Curculionidae. It is considered near indistinguishable from Ips cembrae except for the species of tree it chooses as a host and through DNA analysis. The species of tree it dwells in are Larix sibirica, Larix gmelinii, Larix leptolepis and Larix olgensis. The beetle is found in the Asian part of Russia, China (Heilongjiang, Jilin and Liaoning provinces), Japan (Hokkaido and Honshu), the Korean peninsula and Mongolia.[1]

gollark: Another important area which seems to have improved a lot "recently" is genetic modification and sequencing.
gollark: Yes, there is seemingly slowdown in the actual hardware, but progress on software stuff and lots of interesting new approaches to hardware.
gollark: Yes, I know, it's very exciting.
gollark: We got blue LEDs (→ LED lighting) and lithium ion batteries (→ ~every portable device and now cars) within about the same timeframe, I think.
gollark: (Specifically the replies to those)
