Strangalia virilis LeConte. View in CoL New larval host record.
DJH observed a female ovipositing on a solid, dead branch (about 7–10 cm diameter) about 1.5 m above ground on a large, living water oak, Quercus nigra L. from TX: Harris Co., Addicks Reservoir area. The branch was collected afterwards, and two specimens emerged the following year. Strangalia virilis is usually encountered along the margin of oak woods and meadow habitat where it frequents various flowers, sometimes being attracted to fermenting bait.
