| Abstract |
Northeastern India is one of the hot spots of mega biodiversity of the world. The collections of cerambycid beetles were made from the forest region of Arunachal Pradesh, India during 2008–2013. A total of 49 species of cerambycids were collected during the survey, belonging to three subfamilies and a checklist of all the species is provided. Taxonomic synonyms, bibiliography alongwith new distribution and list of host plants of the region are included. Rhytidodera griseofasciata is reported for the first time from India, besides seven other species, viz., Nupserha nigriceps, Pterolophia (Hylobrotus) tuberculatrix, Neocerambyx grandis, Olenecamptus indianus, Obereopsis obscura obscura, Aristobia reticulator, and Sarothrocera lowii are being reported from Arunachal Pradesh for the first time. |
