These data include ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species collected in multi-panel traps placed in grids within ʻŌlaʻa Forest and the Kahuku unit of Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National park between June 2021 and Februrary 2022 along with results from culturing viable Ceratocystis fungi from these trap collections.

This data release includes metadata and tabular data that describes changes in tree foliage condition and attack rates of beetles on trees inoculated with Ceratocystis lukuohia and on untreated, control trees during 10 January 2019 - .12 August 2021.

This data release includes data and metadata containing (1) study site locations and elevation where bolts (tree stem sections) infected with Ceratocystis lukuohia and/or C. huliohia were collected on Hawai'i Island, (2) the ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) species that were reared from bolts, (3) Ceratocystis spp. viability results from culturing tests of the beetles' frass, (4) frass production estimates from three ambrosia beetle species, and (5) quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) DNA results of viability subcultures. Data were used in the analysis for the manuscript "Ambrosia beetle communities and frass production in ʻōhiʻa (Metrosideros polymorpha) infected with Ceratocystis fungi responsible for Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death." Beetles and frass were collected in the lab from Rapid 'Ōhiʻa Death-infected trees from 2018-2019.

These data include bark and ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species directly reared from ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) wood infected with either Ceratocystis lukuohia or Ceratocystis huliohia, the pathogens responsible for Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD). Rearing took place on Kauaʻi between January 2020 and November 2021.

This data release includes metadata and tabular data that documents the response of ohia (Metrosideros polymorpha) and ambrosia beetles (Curculionidae, Xyleborini) following the intentional inoculation of healthy ohia to Ceratocystis lukuohia, one of two fungal pathogens that causes Rapid Ohia Death (ROD). Ohia were inoculated with the ROD pathogen at three sites differing in elevation on the Island of Hawaii during January and June 2019. Inoculated and control trees were monitored for changes in foliage condition, beetle attack rates, beetle species composition, and the viability of the fungi within the tree through August 2021. These data are represented in the following seven files: 1) descriptions of trees, 2) tree conditions and the presence of beetle galleries, 3) beetles collected in boring dust traps (BDTs), 4) viability of fungi in beetle frass, 5) beetles collected on sticky traps, 6) descriptions of felled trees, and 7) beetles emerging from felled trees.

This data release includes data and metadata documenting 1) ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species caught in multi-panel traps within ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) dominated forests in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park as well as results from culturing Ceratocystis lukuohia or Ceratocystis huliohia, the fungi that cause rapid ʻōhiʻa death (ROD), from these traps, 2) GPS coordinates for each trap and 3) ʻōhiʻa tree coordinates and descriptions.

These data contain the study site locations and elevation information where bolts (tree stem sections) infected with Ceratocystis lukuohia and/or C. huliohia were collected on Hawai'i Island.

These data contain the documentation of ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) attack on healthy ʻōhiʻa trees. Beetles were collected on sticky cards.
