In November 2003 and June 2004, the boring insects and their spatial distribution within Pinus massoniana forest were investigated in Zhoushan City, East China's Zhejiang Province where Bursaphelenchus xylophilus happened typically. And then, the niche width, proportional similarity of niche and the niche overlap of dominant species of dying trees were computed. Results showed that 5 insect species infected and damaged Pinus massoniana which had been infected by Bursaphelenchus xylophilus. Among which four were wood boring beetles and one was termite. Species within host trees varied from winter to summer, and all of the species had their own niche width, proportional similarity of niche and niche overlap. So they can achieve competitive equilibrium and coexistence according to their biological characteristics and life habits.
