フィールド日記

校舎の壁にノコギリカミキリがとまっていました。ここには外灯があり、夜のうちに様々な昆虫が集まってきます。和名は、ギザギザのある触覚に由来します。針葉樹から広葉樹まで幅広い木材を餌とします。


I found this long-horned beetle called "Nokogirikamikiri(ノコギリカミキリ)" on the wall of our school building. During the night, many kinds of insects come to the outside lights of school building . "Nokogiri(ノコギリ)" in its name means "saw" and it comes from their sawtooth-like jagged antennae. Their larvae eat wide variety of trees from conifers to broadleaf trees.
