The Asian longhorned beetle is a wood-boring insect that attacks 12 types of hardwood trees in North America, including maples, elms, buckeyes, birches and willows. Infested trees do not recover ...
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.

Though the vast majority of woodboring beetles are ecologically important and economically benign, some species can become economic pests by attacking relatively healthy trees (e.g. Asian longhorn beetle, emerald ash borer) or by infesting downed trees in lumber yards. Species such as the Asian longhorn beetle and the emerald ash borer are ...
