Abstract:

The pupa of Xylotrechus smei (Laporte & Gory, 1841) is described and illustrated for the first time.The presence in West-Palaearctic region of such Oriental cerambycid, erro-neously recorded by previous authors as Xylotrechus stebbingi Gahan, 1906, is proved; the key by Chrepanov (1988) for the identification of the pupae of Western-European Xylotrechus-species is adapted.
