Оxyporus (Pseudoxyporus) lateralis

Gravenhorst, 1802

Published data. MCCABE & TEALE (1981): L3 morphology; CAMPBELL (1969): distribution.

Larval morphology. Genus descriptions characters, no data on chaetotaxy of third instar larva. MCCABE & TEA- LE (1981) wrongly suggested that larvae of this species have four-segmented antennae, presumably because they miscounted the elevated area at the antennal socket as the first antennal segment.

Development. Duration of life stages unknown.

Behavior. Larval tunnels in fungal cups and stalks were observed. Larvae move in a quick, jerky fashion (MC- CABE & TEALE 1981). The species is active from April to November, but most of the specimens (adults and larvae) were collected in September and October.
