Summary

Description
English: Photos taken October 2019, just 2 weeks after a canopy branch fell to the ground a hundred yards from the visitor center at Elk Prairie Campground of Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park. The bark is much thinner than found on the main trunk/bole. A piece of the bark, flipped to show the inner side, reveals bark beetle larval tunnels and exit bore holes.

Canopy branches of Coast Redwood have thin bark that native bark beetles are able to bore into for egg-laying and larval growth via tunnels.
