Clytus blaisdelli
Clytus blaisdelli is a longhorn beetle species in the family Cerambycidae, first described by Van Dyke in 1920. It belongs to the genus Clytus, a group of cerambycids often noted for wasp-mimicking coloration and patterns. The species occurs in North America, with records from the United States. As with many Clytus species, it likely exhibits Batesian mimicry of Hymenoptera as a defensive adaptation.
Sternidocinus barbarus
Sternidocinus barbarus is a longhorn beetle (Cerambycidae) and the sole species in its genus. It was described by Van Dyke in 1920 based on specimens from western North America. The species belongs to the subfamily Lamiinae, tribe Acanthocinini, a group characterized by often cryptic coloration and nocturnal habits. Its monotypic genus status makes it taxonomically distinctive within the diverse cerambycid fauna of North America.
