description | The objective of this study was to evaluate the damage and distribution of Synanthedon cardinalis in the central region of the state of Veracruz. Two plantations, on which the insect was present, located on the Cerro de la Galaxia in the municipality of Xalapa, Veracruz, were studied. On these plantations, were determined whether the trees had died because of attack by the insect. Attacked and healthy trees were counted and number of resin lumps, tree height, and DBH were recorded. To determine altitudinal distribution of the pitch moth, pine stands and restoration sites at different altitudes were visited. We found that in plantation I, 11 trees died because of the insect, while in plantation II only eight had died. In plantation I, 17 standing trees were recorded; of these, 82.35% were affected by the pitch moth. In plantation II, 94.4% were affected by the insect and eight had been killed by the pest. Tree height varied from 6.3 to 23 m and DBH was 0.82 to 1.67 m in plantation I, while in plantation II, height was 3 to 11 m and DBH was 0.44 to 1.15 m. No significant association between tree height and number of resin lumps per tree was found. The volume affected in the two sites was 17,492 m³. For the first time, S. cardinalis is recorded in P. teocote. In terms of altitudinal distribution, the insect was found between 1420 and 3006 m in the central region of the state of Veracruz. |

El objetivo de este trabajo fue evaluar el daño y la distribución de Synanthedon cardinalis en la zona centro del estado de Veracruz. Para ello se ubicaron dos plantaciones con presencia del insecto en el Cerro de la Galaxia, localizado en el municipio de Xalapa, Veracruz, donde se determinó si los árboles habían muerto por el ataque del insecto, además se registró el número de grumos, árboles atacados y sanos, la altura del árbol y el DAP. Para conocer la distribución altitudinal de la palomilla resinera se visitaron rodales de especies de pinos a diferentes pisos altitudinales, así como en sitios de restauración. Se encontró que en la plantación I, 11 árboles murieron a causa del insecto, en tanto que en la plantación II sólo ocho. En la plantación I, se registraron 17 árboles en pie, de los cuales el 82.35 % estuvo afectado por la palomilla resinera, en tanto que en la plantación II el 94.4 % estuvo afectado por el insecto y ocho árboles murieron a causa de la plaga. La altura de los árboles varió de 6.3 a 23 m y el DAP de 0.82 a 1.67 m en la plantación I, en tanto que en la plantación II la altura fue de 3 a 11 m y el DAP de 0.44 a 1.15 m. No se encontró una asociación significativa entre la altura de los árboles y el número de grumos por árbol. La afectación de volumen en ambos sitios fue de 17, 492 m³. Se reporta por primera a S. cardinalis en P. teocote. Además, el insecto fue registrado desde los 1420 a los 3006 metros de altitud en la región centro del estado de Veracruz.
