...Both, positive responses of insect populations, such as increased development rate, increased chance of survival and reproductive potential and negative effects like decreased growth rate and reduced fecundity are to be expected (Hunter, 2001; Bale et al., 2002; Huberty and Denno, 2004)....

...Generally, bark beetles and wood borers benefit from severe drought (Koricheva et al., 1998; Huberty & Denno, 2004)....

...…be more susceptible to increased defence compounds in leaf tissues of water-stressed trees than sap feeders (e.g. aphids), phloem and cambium feeders as vascular tissues contain lower amount of allelochemicals (Mattson & Haack, 1987; Larsson, 1989; Awmack & Leather, 2002; Huberty & Denno, 2004)....

...Several textbooks (Speight & Wainhouse, 1989; Wainhouse, 2005) and review articles (Mattson & Haack, 1987; Koricheva et al., 1998; Huberty & Denno, 2004) have listed examples of forest pest responses to drought....

...In particular, sap suckers were considered as performing better on stressed trees in Koricheva et al. (1998), whereas Huberty & Denno (2004) found the opposite....

...In contrast with bark beetles that are known to perform better under prolonged drought, most evidence suggest that leaf chewers are negatively affected by continuous or high water stress, while performances increase under moderate and intermittent water stress [6, 45, 60, 93]....

...Finally, not all forest insects are immediately concerned by local drought conditions [62] and some, like aphids, must wait for the trees to recover better living conditions [45] to exploit the physiological modifications of the host due to drought....

...Hence, when temperatures increase above the optimal, growth rates will start to decrease [7, 88] as well as fecundity and survival [5, 45, 48]....

...Many reviews have looked at the direct or indirect impacts of drought on insects at the individual level [45,48,50,53,60]....

...Leaf-chewers such as moths, sawflies and beetle, are often more susceptible to the increase in defense compounds in leaf tissues than sap-feeders (aphids) feeding on vascular tissues containing less of these compounds [45, 60]....
