Macrosiagon Diversiceps
''Macrosiagon'' is a genus of wedge-shaped beetles in the family Ripiphoridae. There are more than 20 described species in ''Macrosiagon''. Under the rules of the ICZN, the nomenclatural gender of the genus name is feminine, as it is based on the Greek word "siagon" (σῐᾱγών), for "jaw", which is feminine in gender, despite recent publications erroneously treating the gender as neuter (e.g. Batelka, J.

Macrosiagon Limbata
''Macrosiagon limbatum'' is a species of wedge-shaped beetle in the family Ripiphoridae. They are found across the Eastern United States, Southeastern Canada and Central America. It is likely that their range extends into South America but this currently remains unknown. Macrosiagon limbatum was first discovered in 1781 by the famous zoologist Johan Christian Fabricius. Coleopterans in the genus Macrosiagon are internal parasites of other insects at some point during their lifecycle. They go through a form of hypermetamorphosis, in which the larva goes through multiple stages of morphologically distinct instars. The female deposits eggs on flowers visited by bees and other hymenopterans. Larva of Macrosiagon limbatum have been reported as parasites of the wasp family Crabronidae. The first larval instar is a Planidium, planidum, an active larva that can climb on a host hymenopteran. They are then transported to the host's nest, where they act as parasitoids. The following instars d ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
