Winter mortality of Oncideres pustulatus LeConte (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) larvae induced by freezing temperatures
By Marlin E. Rice
Journal of the Kansas Entomological Society 59(3): 423-427, 1986
ABSTRACT: Large numbers of Oncideres pustulatus larvae were killed by record-breaking freezing temperatures in Texas during December 1983 and January 1984. Larvae were collected from three widely separated areas in southern Texas (Upper Gulf Coast, Coastal Bend, and Lower Rio Grande Valley) and examined for mortality. Mean percent mortality was 96.53, 94.97, and 33.45 respectively. Mortality in the Lower Rio Grande Valley was significantly different from the two more northerly areas. Weather records obtained from each area were used to relate the effects of freezing temperatures to larval mortality.

Branch Girdling by Oncideres cingulata (Coleoptera; Cerambycidae) and Relative Host Quality of Persimmon, Hickory, and Elm
By Marlin E. Rice
Annals of the Entomological Society of America 88(4): 451-455, 1995
ABSTRACT: Female Oncideres cingulata (Say) girdle living branches of deciduous trees with their mandibles and lay eggs in the freshly killed host. Girdled branches of American elm, Ulmus americana; bitternut hickory, Carya cordiformis; persimmon, Diospyros virginiana; and shagbark hickory, Carya ovata, were collected in Missouri and examined. Branches from persimmon and elm were divided into 2 categories: (1) persimmon and virgin persimmon (branches from trees that had not been previously girdled); and (2) elm and elm stub (branches that had the terminal section girdled during the previous year).

Notes on some longicorns from subtropical Texas (Coleop.: Cerambycidae)
By Linsley, E.G. & J.O. Martin.
Entomological News, 44(7): 178-183., 1933

Since the subtropical insect fauna of Brownsville, Texas, was first made famous by Townsend, and later by Wickbam, Schwarz, and Schaeffer, this interesting region has been sought by many collectors. During recent years the development of good roads and improved methods of transportation have eliminated the necessity for spending long periods of time in travelling to and from Southern Texas.
