Biology: Polyphagous (Beaver 2010). The species, like others in the genus, breeds in rather small stems despite its bulky habitus ( Browne 1961a, Kalshoven 1959). The gallery system usually has a circumferential gallery, from which extend one to several longitudinal galleries in which the larvae develop (Beaver 2010).
