Neoclytus rufus

Classification Diagnostic Features of Larvae
  • Mature larva. Very similar to that of Neoclytus cacicus, from which it differs in having a non-striate pronotum and the hypostoma transversely to obliquely striate anteriorly. Adapted from Duffy (1960).
Biology and Economic Importance
  • Members of this tribe are known from various host plant families and several genera (e.g., Chlorophorus, Xylotrechus) are considered economically important. Species of this tribe are potentially invasive outside their native range. More information is available at the CAPS website.
