Text Appearing After Image: horned beetles, buck-beetles, (or Cerambycidse1), ofwhich about six hundred species are known in North America alone. The an-tennae and legs of thesebeetles are very long.2 Thelarvae bore into even thehardest woods, and live inthe wood for two or threeyears. Timber and shadetrees are thus greatly dam-aged. A favorite collect-ing ground for Ceramby-cidre is the golden-rod,where the black, yellow-banded locust borer, Cyllenerobince (Fig. 59), is prettysure to be found.Still another destructive family is that of the leaf-eatingbeetles, — the Chrysomelidre,3 to which the potato-beetlebelongs. These beetles are thickand round in shape. They laytheir eggs upon the leaves ofplants. The larv?e feed on theleaves or burrow in the stem.Usually the larva is conspicu-ously colored and exposed, andrelies for protection upon its dis-agreeable odor and taste. Themost destructive species to agri-culture in the northern United FIG. bl. — Prlonus laticollis, a long-horn. Black. Nat. size. Photo, byW
