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.

This data release includes data and metadata containing documentation of 1) ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species caught in cross-vane panel traps (CVPT) in ʻōhiʻa (Metrosideros polymorpha) dominated forests with geographical locations and elevations and 2) ambrosia beetle species reared directly from cut ʻōhiʻa tree sections (bolts) infected with Rapid ʻŌhiʻa Death (ROD) causing pathogens at various elevations from Kauaʻi, HI USA. Data were used in a study describing bark and ambrosia beetles associated with ROD and ʻōhiʻa lehua forests on Kauaʻi.

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.

These data include bark and ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) species collected in cross-vane panel traps (CVPT) baited with a 1:1 methanol:ethanol lure in Northeastern ʻōhiʻa lehua (Metrosideros polymorpha) dominant forests of Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi in 2021.

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 longhorn beetle (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) and ambrosia beetle (Coleoptera: Scolytinae) trap data collected at Waipunalei, Hawaii Island.

This data release includes metadata and tabular data that describes ambrosia beetles that emerged from galleries within trees inoculated with Ceratocystis lukuohia. Beetles were collected in boring dust traps (BDTs) that were placed over the entrances of active galleries. The dataset includes beetles identified by species and the date on which they collected.

These data include frass production estimates from three ambrosia beetle species. Frass was collected from individual ambrosia beetle galleries in Rapid 'Ōhiʻa Death-infected ʻōhiʻa trees (Metrosideros polymorpha) from 2018-2019. Frass is defined as fine particles of macerated wood or boring dust, beetle parts, and feces.
