Chlorophorus sartor is a species of round-necked longhorns of the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Cerambycinae.

Etymology

The genus name Chlorophorus derives from the Greek word chlorós meaning green and phorós meaning wearing, while the species name sartor means tailor.[2]

Distribution

This widespread and common beetle is present in most of Europe (Albania, Austria, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Switzerland), in the eastern Palearctic realm, and in the Near East.[3][4][5]

Habitat

These beetles inhabit meadows and forest edges. In spring and summer they can be found on flowers of many plant species.[6]

C. sartor – male

Description

Chlorophorus sartor can reach a length of 6–10 millimetres (0.24–0.39 in).[4] Head, pronotum and elytra are black or brownish and the elytrae show three light stripes and dots.

This species is rather similar to Chlorophorus pelleteri.

Biology
