Family PYROCHROIDJE 



Rather large, flattened beetles, bright blue, black or orange in contrast, 

 thorax narrower than the elytra, the latter not very hard in texture and some- 

 what widening posteriorly. The antennae are either strongly serrated or, in 

 the males, with long comb-like processes. The beetles are usually rather rare, 

 are found about dead or decaying trees and in these live the larvte, which have 

 a broad head, stout legs and two spines on the last abdominal segment. 



None are of economic importance.
