Description
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 51 records.
1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods
Trapping of beetles was primarily done using Petrov flight intercept traps, ‘Petrov FIT’, as described in Nikulina et al. (2015). Measurements were made as previously reported in Jordal (1998b). Scolytodes is here treated as masculine as originally proposed and later corroborated by Alonso-Zarazaga & Lyal (2009) and followed by Bright (2019). All feminine amended names in Wood (2007) are therefore rejected. All holotypes are either deposited in Ecuador at Museo de Zoologia, Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Ecuador, Quito or U.S. National Museum of Natural History and held in trust for Museo Ecuatoriano de Ciencias Naturales (MECN), Quito. Other material studied are deposited in the following institutions: MECN Museo Ecuatoriano de Ciencias Naturales, Quito. MSUC A.J. Cook Arthropod Research Collection, Michigan State University, East Lansing. NHMW Naturhistorisches Museum, Wien. QCAZ Museo de Zoologia, Pontificia Universidad Catolica del Ecuador, Quito (PUCE). USNM U.S. National Museum of Natural History, Washington D.C. ZMBN Zoological collections (entomology) at the University Museum of Bergen.
| Study Extent | Samples were provided from various field expeditions to Ecuador and by a long-term canopy fogging project executed in the primary forest in Amazon Basin in Yasuní National Park at the Tiputini Biodiversity Station and Okone Gare Station located in Orellana province. Sites were sampled twice a year during each of the rainy (May–October) and dry seasons (November–April) and are detailed in Erwin et al. (2005). At the time of Erwin’s collecting (1998 and prior), the Orellana province had not yet been separated from the Napo province and label data on these specimens give Napo as the province. Hand collecting was made in primary forests at the Tiputini Biodiversity station, Yakusinchi Reserve (El Cotopaxi province), Murucumba and Samama nature reserves (Los Ríos province), all at lower altitudes (400–800 m.a.s.l). Material was also collected in Cosanga and Yanayacu Field station in Napo province, and Otonga nature reserve in Cotopaxi province, located at high altitude (1900–2100 m.a.s.l). |

Method step description:
- DNA was extracted from specimens collected by hand which are part of longer series. An effort was made to include major morphological groups in the genus, with a deliberate bias towards species complexes in the atratus and cecropiavorus groups (Table 1). Partial sequences were amplified for the genes Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI, 690 bp), large subunit of ribosomal DNA (28S, 754 aligned bp) and Elongation Factor 1-α (EF-1α, 588 bp), using primers listed in Jordal et al. (Jordal et al. 2011). Separate Bayesian analyses of each gene, and combined data, were made in MrBayes 3.2.7 (Ronquist et al. 2012). Analyses were run for 10 million generations, with 5 million generations removed as burn in, after assessment of likelihood stationarity in Tracer (Rambaut et al. 2014). Data were also analysed by maximum likelihood (ML) in PAUP* (Swofford 2002). Evolutionary models selected were GTR+G+I for all three partitions, including 28S, COI first and second positions combined (due to limited variation in second position), and COI third position.
