Le lepture à suture noire (Stenurella melanura) est un petit coléoptère de 6 à 10 mm, de la famille des longicornes (Cerambycidae).
Ses élytres présentent un large trait noir à la suture.
On le trouve sur différentes fleurs, surtout les ombellifères, les plantains, etc., principalement dans les bois. Les adultes sont visibles de mai à septembre.
Les larves se nourrissent dans les bois morts de conifères et autres arbres.

Hola Catherine:
Es la primera vez que veo este escarabajo. La nota informativa es escueta y suficiente.
El colorido y el detalle son buenos y es evidente que no has usado el flash.
Saludos
Jacobo

Bonsoir Catherine,

Une très bonne présentation de ce lepture. Parfaite netteté. Excellente exposition. J'aurais peut-être un peu jouer sur la luminosité et le bruit électronique est facilement éliminé.
Bonne soirée,
Mariki

Hello Catherine,
I think I've captured the same species of Beetle today but mine is not nearly as sharp and as close as this one! Excellent work, very sharp and all in focus. Nice leaf as a background and very well composed.
Many thanks and regards, Ulla
