Longhorn Beetles
Cerambycidae
(after Hangay & Zborowski 2010): Cerambycids are distinctively elongate, cylindrical, subcylindrical or flattened, and range from 5-80mm in length. Their heads are exposed and can be prognathous or hypognathous. Antennae are usually 11-segmented, rarely with 10 or more than 20 segments, and span at least two-thirds of their body length. Antennae are inserted on prominences on the emargination of the eyes. Eyes usually kidney-shaped, mandibles often enlarged and prominent, pronotum usually moderately convex and elytra usually cover the entire abdomen, with most species being fully winged. Tarsal formula 5-5-5, mostly appearing 4-4-4 (pseudotetramerous tarsi).
