Scolytoplatypus bombycinus Browne Scolytoplatypus bombycinus Browne, 1955: 361 . Thai distribution: unspecified southern province ( Browne 1961a ). Not recorded again in Thailand . Other distribution: Malaysia (E. and W.) (3) Taxonomy: Beaver and Gebhardt (2006) showed that this is a good species, and not a synonym of Scolytoplatypus eutomoides Blandford ( contra Schedl 1975 ). Keys to males and females of Oriental species described up to 2006 are provided by Beaver & Gebhardt (2006) . Biology: Browne (1961a) describes the biology and gallery system, and suggests a fixed host association with trees of the family Dipterocarpaceae . However, most species of Scolytoplatypus attack a wide range of host families, and the association needs to be confirmed.
