About

Ambrosiella beaveri is a fungus that is most commonly known as a symbiont of the camphor shot borer, Cnestus mutilatus. In this obligate mutualism, A. beaveri (an ambrosia fungus) relies on C. mutilatus (an ambrosia beetle) for transmission to and from dead or dying trees. In turn, A. beaveri serves as the sole source of nutrition for its ambrosia beetle host and its progeny.
