escarabajos de la corteza (Ips spp.)
Explanation:
"Ips es un género de coleópteros de la familia Curculionidae que pertenece a la subfamilia de los escolitinos (Scolytinae), también conocidos como escarabajos de la corteza."
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ips_(animal)

"Ips is a genus of beetles in the family Curculionidae, the true weevils. They are bark beetles, members of the subfamily Scolytinae. [...] They are known commonly as engraver beetles, ips engraver beetles, and pine engravers."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ips_(beetle)

El nombre del género, Ips, debe ir en cursiva; "spp.", que quiere decir "(las) especies de" este género, irá en redonda:

"Para hacer referencia a las especies pertenecientes a un género (y a veces a un taxón genérico particular), la fórmula binominal cambia a: nombre del género + spp., por ejemplo: Pinus spp. se lee como "las especies del género Pinus".
