Metallic Wood-boring Beetle
Buprestidae is a family of beetles known as jewel beetles or metallic wood-boring beetles because of their glossy iridescent colors. Larvae of this family are known as flatheaded borers. The family is among the largest of the beetles, with some 15,500 species known in 775 genera. In addition, almost 100 fossil species have been described. The larger and more spectacularly colored jewel beetles are highly prized by insect collectors. The elytra of some Buprestidae species have been traditionally used in beetlewing jewellery and decoration in certain countries in Asia, like India, Thailand and Japan. Description and ecology Shape is generally cylindrical or elongate to ovoid, with lengths ranging from , although most species are under . '' Catoxantha'', '' Chrysaspis'', ''Euchroma'' and ''Megaloxantha'' contain the largest species. A variety of bright colors are known, often in complicated patterns. The iridescence common to these beetles is not due to pigments in the exoskeleton ...

The best known species is the emerald ash borer (''Agrilus planipennis''), a serious pest of Fraxinus, ash trees, with other notable species including ''Agrilus biguttatus'' and ''Agrilus auroguttatus,'' which ar''e'' pests of oak trees. file:Agrilus aureus dorsal1.jpg, ''Agrilus aureus'' Species * ''Agrilus abantiades'' Descarpentries & Villiers, 1963 * ''Agrilus abditus'' Horn, 1891 * ''Agrilus abdominalis'' Saunders, 1874 * ''Agrilus abductus'' Horn, 1891 * ''Agrilus abeillei'' (Théry, 1905) * ''Agrilus aberlenci'' Curletti, 1997 * ''Agrilus aberrans'' Kerremans, 1900 * ''Agrilus abhayi'' Baudon, 1965 * ''Agrilus abjectus'' Horn, 1891 * ''Agri ...
