Prionus Geoffroy, 1762 is a genus of long-horned beetles of the subfamily Prioninae, tribe Prionini, widespread in Europe, Asia and North America. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Description
Ergates faber larva Prionoplus reticularis, larva. The Prioninae are a subfamily of Cerambycidae (long-horned beetles). They are typically large (25–70 mm) and usually brown or black. The males of a few genera sport large mandibles that are used in fights with other males, similar to stag beetles.
A general term for a structure by which an object hangs (from Greek language kremastos, meaning "hung up"); for example in entomology: in some Lepidoptera, including most butterflies, the pupa attaches to a surface by the cremaster, a structure at the tip of the pupal abdomen. The cremaster is the homologue of the anal plate of the caterpillar.
A larva (/ ˈ l ɑːr v ə /; pl.: larvae / ˈ l ɑːr v iː /) is a distinct juvenile form many animals undergo before metamorphosis into their next life stage. Animals with indirect development such as insects , some arachnids , amphibians , or cnidarians typically have a larval phase of their life cycle .
Prionus laticollis, also known as the broad-necked root borer or broad necked prionus, is a root-boring longhorn beetle described by Dru Drury in 1773. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is widespread throughout eastern North America : its range covers a vast swath from Quebec in the northeast to Arkansas in the southwest.
These are called "scarabaeiform" because it is the typical form of the larvae of the Scarabaeidae—the scarab beetles and their relatives. In contrast, larvae of the Curculionidae — the weevils — are also called "apodous eruciform", (literally meaning legless caterpillar-shaped; unlike scarab larvae, they do not have legs). This seems ...
Lepus californicus: This species appears to only occur in deposits from the Last Glacial Maximum onward and is absent in those predating it. This could be indicative of environmental changes occurring at La Brea in this time period. Brush rabbit [44] [37] Sylvilagus bachmani: The brush rabbit is more commonly found in the older La Brea deposits.
