''Smaragdina salicina'' is a species of short-horned leaf beetles belonging to the family Chrysomelidae, subfamily Clytrinae. This leaf beetle lives in Europe, in the East Palearctic ecozone and in the Near East. The adults are long. The colours of head and elytra of this beetle are dark blue, while pronotum is reddish and legs are yellowish. They mainly feed on ''Salix'' and ''Crataegus'' species, but also on leaves of various other plants (Blackthorn ''Prunus spinosa'', ''Trifolium'' species, etc.). At the time of egg-laying they wrap their eggs in an envelope of their own excrement and drop them on the ground from above, manoeuvring with their hind legs. ==External links== * (Biolib ) * (Culex ) * (Fauna Europaea ) 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「Smaragdina salicina」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
