Goes pulcher Classification Family Cerambycidae > Subfamily Lamiinae > Tribe Monochamini > Genus Goes Diagnostic Features of Larvae Larva. In general similar to Goes tigrinus, but the asperities of the pronotum and the ampullae are much finer and the tubercles of the ampullae not so prominent; body clothed with coarse reddish-brown hairs; median oval of tubercles on dorsal ampullae three to four times as wide as long; first thoracic spiracle twice as wide as long; living, matured larvae of a distinct yellowish color. Pupa. Similar to Goes pulverulentus but with fewer bristles on labrum and pronotum; those of sixth abdominal tergum very few and sparser than on first. Adapted from Craighead (1923). Biology and Economic Importance The larva had been found only in hickory (Carya). The eggs usually are laid in crotches of branches and the larvae feed a greater proportion of the time under the bark. They mature more rapidly than most other species of the genus, requiring two or three years to complete the life cycle. Found throughout the eastern and central United States and southern Canada.
