Ecyrus
Ecyrus is a genus of longhorn beetles (family Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lamiinae, tribe Pogonocherini. The genus was established by LeConte in 1852 and contains eight recognized species distributed in North America, primarily in the southwestern United States and Mexico. Adults are attracted to ultraviolet light.
Ecyrus dasycerus
Rough-coated Longhorned Beetle
Ecyrus dasycerus is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, first described by Thomas Say in 1827. It is known from North America, with records from the United States and Mexico. The species exhibits two recognized subspecies: the nominate E. d. dasycerus and E. d. floridanus described by Linsley in 1935. Like other members of the subfamily Lamiinae, it is a wood-associated beetle whose larvae develop in dead or dying woody plants.

penicillatus
Ecyrus penicillatus is a species of longhorn beetle (family Cerambycidae) described by Henry Walter Bates in 1880. The species occurs in Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and the southern United States. It is a member of the subfamily Lamiinae and tribe Pogonocherini. Observations indicate adults are attracted to ultraviolet light at night.
Lypsimena
Lypsimena is a genus of longhorn beetles in the subfamily Lamiinae, tribe Pogonocherini. The genus was established by Haldeman in 1847 and contains five described species distributed in the Americas. Members of this genus are characterized by their elongated body form typical of cerambycids, with antennal features and pronotal structure distinguishing them from related genera.
Pogonocherus parvulus
Pogonocherus parvulus is a small longhorned beetle (Cerambycidae: Lamiinae) described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1852. The species occurs across northern North America, with records from multiple Canadian provinces and the United States. Like other members of the genus Pogonocherus, it is associated with coniferous hosts, though specific biological details remain poorly documented in the literature.
Pogonocherus penicillatus
Pogonocherus penicillatus is a species of longhorn beetle (family Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Lamiinae. The species was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1850. It has been documented across northern North America, with records from Canada and the United States. As a member of the tribe Pogonocherini, it belongs to a group of small to medium-sized cerambycids typically associated with coniferous and deciduous woody plants.
Pogonocherus propinquus
Pogonocherus propinquus is a species of longhorned beetle in the family Cerambycidae, described by Fall in 1910. It belongs to the subfamily Lamiinae and tribe Pogonocherini. The species has been recorded from western North America, including British Columbia, Canada. Like other members of its genus, it is likely associated with coniferous trees, though specific biological details remain poorly documented in the available literature.
Poliaenus
Poliaenus is a genus of longhorn beetles in the subfamily Lamiinae, tribe Pogonocherini. The genus was established by Bates in 1880 and contains approximately 11 species distributed primarily in western North America. Species in this genus are associated with coniferous and hardwood trees, with several species named after their host associations.
Poliaenus californicus
Poliaenus californicus is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, described by Schaeffer in 1908. It belongs to the subfamily Lamiinae and tribe Pogonocherini. The species is known from the United States, with records indicating presence in North America.
Poliaenus negundo
Poliaenus negundo is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae, first described by Schaeffer in 1905. The species is known from Mexico and the United States. As a member of the subfamily Lamiinae and tribe Pogonocherini, it belongs to a group of beetles commonly associated with woody plants. Information regarding its biology, host associations, and specific habitat requirements remains limited in published literature.
Zaplous
Zaplous is a genus of longhorn beetles in the subfamily Lamiinae, tribe Pogonocherini. The genus contains two described species: Zaplous annulatus and Zaplous baracutey. It was established by LeConte in 1878. Species in this genus are native to the Caribbean region, with Z. baracutey endemic to Cuba.
Zaplous annulatus
Zaplous annulatus is a species of longhorn beetle in the family Cerambycidae. Originally described by Louis Alexandre Auguste Chevrolat in 1862 under the genus Ecyrus, it was later transferred to the genus Zaplous. The species is known from Cuba and the United States, with records from the Caribbean and North America. As a member of the subfamily Lamiinae, it belongs to a diverse group of wood-boring beetles commonly known as flat-faced longhorns.
