Larven und adulte Käfer von Korynetes caeruleus (DE GEER 1775) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) wurden in alten Kirchen gesammelt und im Labor auf Kulturen von Anobium punctatum (DE GEER 1774) (Coleoptera, Ptinidae, früher Anobiidae) aufgezogen. Der Bruterfolg von K. caeruleus war gering, aber es wurden grundlegende Parameter des Entwicklungszyklus dieser Art ermittelt. Bei 21 °C und 75 % relativer Luftfeuchtigkeit und einer viermonatigen Kälteperiode bei 4 °C dauerte die Entwicklung von K. caeruleus vom Ei bis zum erwachsenen Tier 2 Jahre. Das Puppenstadium kann nach eineinhalb Jahren erreicht und abgeschlossen werden.
Die Larven von K. caeruleus ernährten sich von den Larven von A. punctatum. Die Nahrungsaufnahme ist eine Kombination aus Saugen von Hämolymphe und Verzehr von Körperteilen. Die sichelartigen Mandibeln der Larven von K. caeruleus durchdringen die Cuticula der Beutetierlarven, gefolgt von pumpenden und saugenden Körperbewegungen.
Erwachsene Käfer von A. punctatum wurden von K. caeruleus-Larven nicht angegriffen. Das Fressverhalten von erwachsenen K. caeruleus wurde nicht untersucht.
Larvae and adults of Korynetes caeruleus (de Geer 1775) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) were collected from old churches and reared in the laboratory on Anobium punctatum (de Geer 1774) (Coleoptera, Ptinidea, formerly Anobiidae). Breeding success of K. caeruleus was low, but basic parameters of this species’ developmental cycle were identified. At 21 °C and 75 % relative humidity and a four-month cold period at 4 °C, the development of K. caeruleus from egg to adult appearance lasted 2 years. The pupal stage may be reached and completed after one and a half years. Feeding on larvae of A. punctatum by larvae of K. caeruleus was observed and consisted of a combination of sucking haemolymph and consuming body parts. The sickle-like mandibles of larvae of K. caeruleus penetrate the cuticle of prey larvae followed by pumping and sucking body movements. Adult beetles of A. punctatum were not attacked by K. caeruleus larvae. Feeding behavior of adult K. caeruleus was not investigated.
Second occurrence of aberrant antenna in house longhorn beetle Hylotrupes bajulus (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) in the F3 generation. In 2016, the house longhorn beetle (Hylotrupes bajulus) breeding culture of the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) in Berlin produced a second female beetle with a unique malformed right antenna similar to the one previously reported. As in the first case the flagellum following the pedical was bifurcated. This time, however, both branches were of similar length with 7 and 8 flagellomeres, respectively. The left antenna was normally developed with 11 antennal segments (scape, pedicel and 9 flagellomeres). This second female stands as F3-generation in direct maternal line to the previous one. A heritable cause for the malformation is likely.
In 2012, the house Ianghorn beetle (Hylotrupes bajulus) breeding culture of the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) in Berlin produced a female beetle with a unique malformed right antenna. Distal to the pedical, the flageilum was bifurcated into a Ionger branch with the typical 9 flageilomeres and a shorter branch with only 4 flageilomeres. The left antenna of the same animal was normally developed with 11 segments (scape, pedical and 9 flageiiomeres). The malformation is interpreted as "Bruchdreifachbildung" (triplication of structures after damage during metamorphosis).
