The members of the Cerambycidae (Longhorn Beetles) family are named for their long antennae, sometimes exceedingly so. The antennae of males are usually longer than those of females, and often the antennae are attached to the head in a strange notch at the front of the eye. Styloxus fulleri is a smaller species, at about 12–13 mm in length.
Common tuft bearing longhorn beetle (Aristobia approximator) Acrocinus longimanus – harlequin beetle, a large species where the male has very long front legs; Anoplophora chinensis – citrus long-horned beetle, a major pest; Anoplophora glabripennis – Asian long-horned beetle, an invasive pest species; Aridaeus thoracicus – tiger ...
Batocera wallacei is a huge long-horn beetle reaching about 80–85 millimetres (3.1–3.3 in) of length in the males, while the females are smaller. The length of the antenna may reach about 215–230 millimetres (8.5–9.1 in) in the males. The basic colour of the body is greenish-brownish or grey with whitish dorsal patches on the elytra.
Large antennae on a longhorn beetle. Antennae (sg.: antenna) (sometimes referred to as "feelers") are paired appendages used for sensing in arthropods. Antennae are connected to the first one or two segments of the arthropod head. They vary widely in form but are always made of one or more jointed segments.
Asian long-horned beetle larvae do not pupate before they reach a critical weight, so additional larval instars can occur. [ 2 ] Pupation usually occurs in spring at the end of the larval tunnel in the sapwood , eclosion occurs 12–50 days later, and adults will chew out of the tree approximately one week after eclosion.

As an example, the senses of the species Glenea cantor (also in the family Cerambycidae) were thoroughly analyzed in a 2020 paper, which showed that the sensors, or sensilla throughout its body are largely consistent with those reported for other long-horned beetle species. [11] Antennae on this species have predominantly olfactory and ...
The adult cottonwood borer is a large longhorn beetle with a black-and-white coloration and black antennae as long or longer than the body. [5] The white portions are due to microscopic masses of hair. [6] The larvae have legless, cylindrical, creamy-white bodies with a brown-to-black head and grow up to 38 millimetres (1.5 in) long.
Batocera laena is a huge long-horn beetle reaching about 45–60 millimetres (1.8–2.4 in) of length. The length of the antenna may reach about 120 millimetres (4.7 in). The length of the antenna may reach about 120 millimetres (4.7 in).
