Family EROTYLIDiE. 



Beetles of varying shape, usually yellow or brown with black or blue in con- 

 trast. One type is long, very slender and somewhat cylindrical, and this lives 

 in the larval stage in the stalks of living plants such as clover ; the others are 

 shorter, more robust, tapering to the end of the wing-covers, and these are 

 feeders in fungus or under the bark of trees. The clover-stem borer is the only 

 important species and this is best treated by cutting before the transformations 

 have been completed.
