It is one of the largest beetles in North America and can reach up to three and a half inches in length. ''Derobrachus'' adults are black or brown in color, have long antennae, and spines on the thorax which form a collar around the "neck" of the beetle. They have wings and can fly, albeit awkwardly at times. Mature beetles emerge in the summer to mate. Adults do not eat, and rely solely on their energy reserves until they die in about one month. Not harmful to humans, but can bite if forced to defend itself. ''Derobrachus'' hatches from eggs into grubs, which live underground for as many as three years; as a result, the huge grubs can be uncovered by gardeners doing routine yard maintenance, especially in flower beds surrounding lawns which contain susceptible trees. The larvae are cream colored to pale green, typically with a brown headcap, and feed on the roots of trees, causing branch dieback. In the wild the most commonly affected tree is the palo verde, although wild specimens of other ''Parkinsonia'' species (''P. florida'', ''P. microphylla'' and ''P. sonorae'' among the most common) are attacked as well. The insect can cause significant mechanical damage to the roots of individual trees during its larval phase. Unfortunately due to its cryptic nature, infestation by ''D. geminatus'' may not be detected until tree mortality is unavoidable. In urban areas (such as parks, college campuses, cemeteries and the like) where species of''Parkinsonia'' are not often found, ''D. geminatus'' can feed on the roots of a variety of trees, including the Siberian elm, white and fruitless mulberry, various cottonwoods and, in the warmest desert areas, citrus. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Derobrachus geminatus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
