  • Clytini

    Clytini is a tribe of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) within the subfamily Cerambycinae. Members are typically medium-sized (8–16 mm), often with bright coloration and banded elytra. Many species exhibit wasp-mimicry, with rapid, jerky movements and contrasting yellow-black or red-black patterns. The tribe includes ant-mimicking genera such as Cyrtinus, which are among the smallest cerambycids (2–3 mm). Larvae are primarily xylophagous, developing in dead wood of trees and shrubs. Adults are frequently floricolous or attracted to exudates and fermented fruits. The tribe is distributed across North America, Europe, and Asia, with some species showing expanding or declining population trends.
