Enaphalodes bingkirki .

Observations on the life history of E. bingkirki were made at Masicarán, Tatumbla, Francisco Mozaran Dept., Honduras. The locality consisted of dry oak forest with interspersed vegetation of various shrubs and smaller trees. The beetle was found to develop in the outer bark of living Quercus segoviensis Liebm. Larval habits were similar to those of E. cortiphagus . The larva works mostly in the dead bark, sometimes slightly scoring the living tissue beneath. The pupal cell is constructed in the bark and the beetle chews an oval exit hole. Mature trees with thick bark are strongly preferred (as is typical for beetles developing in the outer bark) and can contain dozens of old emergence holes from previous years.

Enaphalodes bingkirki was described recently from two female specimens collected in Nicaragua (Lingafelter and Santos-Silva 2018) so this collection (two females and one male) extends its distribution to Honduras.
