Saperda tridentata - male

Saperda tridentata - Male
Baltimore City, 39.3069, -76.6253, Maryland, USA
May 7, 1983
Size: 9.5 mm
Emerged from a thick piece (just larger than deck of cards) of American Elm (Ulmus americana) bark. Source was a very large, recently deceased street tree in the Bolton Hill neighborhood.
(Several years ago I posted an image of the female, but forgot to submit the male from the pair that I had reared. These are some the oldest specimens in my collection.)
