Anoplodera
Anoplodera is a genus of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) in the tribe Lepturini, established by Mulsant in 1839. The genus is divided into four subgenera: Anoplodera, Anoploderomorpha, Falsojudolia, and Robustanoplodera. Species occur across the Palearctic and Nearctic regions, with notable diversity in Asia. The North American species A. pubera (Say, 1826) has been treated as the sole species in the genus in some older treatments, though this classification has been revised.
Cyphonotida rostrata
A longhorn beetle species in the subfamily Lepturinae, characterized by an elongated rostrum. The species occurs across South America with records from Bolivia, Brazil, and Colombia, with a recent first record from Peru in seasonally dry forest habitat. The subspecies C. rostrata rostrata has been documented in disturbed localities.
Dorcasina
Dorcasina is a genus of longhorn beetles in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. The genus contains two described species: Dorcasina grossa and Dorcasina matthewsii, both described by LeConte in the late 19th century. As members of the tribe Lepturini, these beetles are flower-visiting cerambycids. The genus was established by Casey in 1913.
Dorcasina grossa
Dorcasina grossa is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1873. It belongs to the subfamily Lepturinae (flower longhorns), a group known for their association with flowers. The species has been recorded in North America, with distribution records indicating presence in the United States.
Etorofus plebejus
Etorofus plebejus is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It was described by Randall in 1838. The species belongs to the tribe Lepturini, which includes flower-visiting longhorn beetles often characterized by their elongated bodies and relatively soft elytra compared to other cerambycids.
Etorofus propinquus
Etorofus propinquus is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It was described by Bland in 1865. The species belongs to the tribe Lepturini, a group commonly known as flower longhorns due to their frequent association with flowers where they feed on pollen and nectar. As with many Lepturinae, adults are likely diurnal and active during the flowering season of their host plants.
Idiopidonia
Idiopidonia is a genus of longhorn beetles (family Cerambycidae) containing a single described species, Idiopidonia pedalis. The genus was established by Swaine and Hopping in 1928 and is classified within the subfamily Lepturinae. It represents a monotypic lineage of flower longhorns with limited documented ecological information.
Idiopidonia pedalis
Idiopidonia pedalis is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. Originally described as Leptura pedalis by LeConte in 1861, it was later transferred to the genus Idiopidonia. The species is known from eastern Canada and the northeastern United States. It belongs to the tribe Lepturini, which comprises flower-visiting longhorn beetles.
Judolia montivagans barberi
Judolia montivagans barberi is a subspecies of longhorned beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It is one of several subspecies within the Judolia montivagans species complex. The species Judolia montivagans belongs to the tribe Lepturini, a group of flower-visiting longhorned beetles commonly known as flower longhorns. The subspecific epithet 'barberi' honors an individual associated with early coleopterological work, following the convention established by Fall in 1907. As with other members of the genus, adults likely visit flowers for nectar and pollen.
Judolia quadrata
Judolia quadrata is a species of longhorned beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. First described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1873, it belongs to a genus of Holarctic flower longhorns. The species is distributed across northern North America including Canada and the northern United States.
Judolia sexspilota
Judolia sexspilota is a species of longhorned beetle (Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lepturinae, described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1859. The genus Judolia belongs to the tribe Lepturini, a group of flower-visiting longhorned beetles often characterized by relatively short antennae compared to other cerambycids. The specific epithet "sexspilota" refers to six spots, suggesting a distinctive spotted elytral pattern. As a member of the Lepturinae, adults likely visit flowers for pollen and nectar feeding.
Judolia swainei
Judolia swainei is a species of longhorned beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It was described by Hopping in 1922. The genus Judolia belongs to the tribe Lepturini, a group of flower-visiting longhorned beetles commonly known as flower longhorns. Like other members of this tribe, adults are likely associated with flowers where they feed on pollen and nectar. The species is known from North America, with records from the United States and Mexico.
Lepturopsis dolorosa
Lepturopsis dolorosa is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1861. The species is found in western North America, including British Columbia, California, and other parts of the United States. As a member of the flower longhorn group (Lepturini), adults are likely associated with flowering plants, though specific biological details remain poorly documented in the available literature.
Pseudostrangalia
Pseudostrangalia is a monotypic genus of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lepturinae. The genus contains a single described species, Pseudostrangalia cruentata. It was established by Swaine and Hopping in 1928. Members of this genus are classified within the tribe Lepturini, a group commonly known as flower longhorns due to their frequent association with flowers as adults.
Strophiona
Strophiona is a genus of longhorn beetles (Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lepturinae. The genus was established by Casey in 1913 and contains three recognized species: Strophiona laeta, S. nitens, and S. tigrina. These beetles belong to the tribe Lepturini, a group commonly known as flower longhorns due to their frequent association with flowers.
Trachysida
Trachysida is a genus of longhorn beetles (family Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lepturinae, tribe Lepturini. The genus contains at least two described species: Trachysida aspera (LeConte, 1873) and Trachysida mutabilis (Newman, 1841). Records indicate association with dead wood of hardwood trees, particularly Carpinus caroliniana (blue beech, musclewood).
Typocerus gloriosus
Typocerus gloriosus is a species of flower longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae. It was described by Hopping in 1922. The species is found in North America. As a member of the Lepturinae, it is likely diurnal and associated with flowers as an adult, though specific biological details for this species remain poorly documented.
Typocerus sparsus
flower longhorn
Typocerus sparsus is a species of flower longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, described by LeConte in 1878. It is distributed across North America, with records from Canada (Manitoba, New Brunswick, Ontario, Québec) and the United States. As a member of the subfamily Lepturinae, it shares the characteristic diurnal activity and flower-visiting behavior of this group.
