Eburodacrys sulphureosignata

Classification Diagnostic Features of Larvae
  • Mature larva. Similar to those of Cyphosterna, but with the front margin of the hypostoma bearing numerous longitudinal to slightly oblique carinae, and with the temples narrowly ferruginous behind ocelli. Length up to 23 mm; maximum breadth (at prothorax) 5.5 mm.

    Pupa. Head with vertex concealed from above by pronotum, glabrous. Antennae filiform, extending as far as abdominal segment 5, where they are recurved ventrally to terminate near hind femora. Eyes feebly convex, glabrous. Pronotum bearing numerous fine, pale, scattered setae, especially along margins; sides with a pair of short, stout tubercles; disc with a pair of para median subconical tubercles. Elytra and wings extending to abdominal segment 4. Abdomen with tergites 2-6 with numerous rather short straight spines. Tergite 7 with similar spines arranged rather as in Elaphidion, but without a pair of tuberculate protuberances. Tergite 8 glabrous. Segment 9 retracted in segment 8. Sternites glabrous. Legs with mid- and hind femora produced posteriorly into a long robust spur; extending posteriorly to abdominal segment 6. Functional spiracles present on abdominal segments 1-5; peritreme broadly oval, and rather strongly raised above general level of cuticle. Length up to 17.5 mm; maximum breadth 5.3 mm. Adapted from Duffy (1960).
Biology and Economic Importance
  • Members of this tribe are known from various host plant families. Species of this tribe are potentially invasive outside their native range.
