See also: Capricorn
The Capricorns are xylophagous insects about the Coléoptère S, provided with long antennas (" horns "), longer than the body and bent backwards. It is from there that their family name in the old denomination came: the longicornes .
These insects belong to cérambycidés ( Cerambycidae ) of the cérambycinés ( Cerambycinae ) and raise of several S, of which: Cerambyx , Hylotrupes . This family was created by Pierre André Latreille (1762-1833) in 1802.
The Larve S of the Capricorn dig galleries in the Bois. They as well attack alive wood as with the structural timber like the frames; the larval state can last from three to ten years.
It among is cérambycidés that one finds the largest insect of the world: the Titanus giganteus .
