note: Group of beetles with similiar breeding habits - to keep the larvae is relatively easy for all species, but I wasn´t so far successful to make captive bred adults lay eggs, further reproduction. Adults are long-lived beetles - live not seldom more than 1 year. In their wild habitat larvae were often found under the bark of Acacia trees, probably they feed on bast.
