Anotations
Scope note:
Members of a family containing over 20,000 species of beetles, most having extremely long antennae. The larvae may be very destructive to trees and woody plants; they are distinguished by a round head with strong jaws, used to bore through and feed on woody plants; the larva pupates within the tree and the new adult exits through a tunnel that has been bored through the wood.
