  Sugar Maple Borer

  Glycobius speciosus, commonly known as the sugar maple borer, is a small longhorned beetle in the tribe Clytini. It is the sole species in its genus. The species is a specialist wood-borer whose larvae develop in living sugar maple trees, causing significant damage to the host. Adults are active in spring and early summer and are attracted to ethanol-based baits. The species is distributed across northeastern North America, from Canada through the northeastern United States.
