Pityophthorus virilis
Pityophthorus virilis is a species of bark beetle in the weevil family Curculionidae, first described by Blackman in 1928. The genus Pityophthorus comprises small ambrosia beetles that primarily infest coniferous trees, though species-level biology for P. virilis remains poorly documented. Most congeneric species are associated with Pinus species and other conifers.
