Immature Stages
of Lonchaeidae
Detailed information on immature stages of Lonchaeidae is being
acquired. However, Taylor (1929,
1930) reported that the larvae of Lonchaea
corticis Taylor are
predaceous on those of Pissodes
strobi Peck and related
beetles. The eggs are laid in
clusters of 6-25 in the oviposition burrows of the beetles. Larvae are not restricted entirely animal
food but may also ingest frass, etc. References: Please refer to <biology.ref.htm>,
