Adapted from Craighead (1923). Biology and Economic Importance Acrocinus longimanus is commonly collected at lights and on dead or dying trees, especially strangler fig (Ficus spp.). This species is known from a variety of host plant families, including the economically important families Fabaceae and Sterculiaceae. Selected References to Larvae Specimens Craighead, 1923
