^aPublications were in Chinese, and only the English abstracts and some tables were consulted; any mistakes in interpretation are our own
^bYoshida et al. (1975) reported that all species of Xylosandrus tested were rendered sterile with doses between 20 and 40 Gy
^cYoshida et al. (1975) and Yoshida et al. (1977) refer to Xyleborus semiopacus that is a synonym of Xylosandrus crassiusculus
