Abstract

Tribe Clytini (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is one of the largest within the long horn beetles, having over 1500 species. Until now, the tribe was considered monophyletic, despite the fact that it combines several different morphological groups. Morphological data alone could not shed enough light on the taxonomy and phylogeny of Clytini.

Although the Cerambycidae is a group that may be of considerable economic importance, comparatively little is known of the life histories or habits of a great many of our commonest western species, and the following random observations may therefore prove of interest.

ABSTRACT:

New larval host plants, distributional, ecological and taxonomic records are presented for 36 species and subspecies of Cerambycidae from the southeastern U.S. Derancistrus rugosus (Gahan) and Eburia cinereopilosa Fisher are recorded from the U.S. for the first time, and new state records for Tylonotus masoni (Knull). Euderces picipes occidentalis Linsley and Zaploits annulatus (Chevrolat) are presented.
