My work concentrates on feeding behavior of overwintering diapausing and post {--} diapausing bark beetles and developmental treshold. This is done either biochemically by measuring the enzymatic activity in the midgut and by assessing the feeding status from the size and consistence of the food bolus in the gut. Detailed knowledge of feeding behaviour and development treshold may help to predict the overwintering success of local populations with all the consequencies for spring dispersal and reproduction.
