Oberea ferruginea

Classification Diagnostic Features of Larvae
  • Larva. This is a more slender form than Obera ruficollis; body hairs coarser and darker brown; secondary ocelli three, irregularly placed; asperities of pronotum covering one-half the length from posterior asperities to anterior border of hairs; asperities of ampullae much coarser, individually distinguishable with a strong hand lens, while in O. ruficollis they are not so distinguishable. Adapted from Craighead (1923).
Biology and Economic Importance
