Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 May 2012
Extract
Saperda Fayi, Bland.—This beautiful Saperda breeds in the small limbs of Crataegus, especially crus-galli and tomentosa, as first observed by Mr. C. D. Zimmermann, Can. Ent., 10, 220; and should it, like some of its allies, acquire a taste for cultivated fruit trees, it would be a formidable enemy, as is evidenced by the way it depredates on thorn bushes. The beetles appear here the last week in May or the first week in June, according to the season, the males preceding the females three or four days.
