Wood-boring Beetle Larva (Buprestidae) Gallery I thought this gallery was really cool because it looks like handwriting. I think it was created by wood-boring beetle larvae (Buprestidae) because of the zigzag pattern. I&#039;m totally sure though because the tunnels are short and end in exit holes. I always thought Buprestid larvae made longer tunnels.<br /> <br /> Habitat: outer edge of sapwood on rotting wood in a wetland Geotagged,United States,WinterWood-boring Beetle Larva (Buprestidae) Gallery,beetle galleries,beetle gallery,galleries,gallery,signs of wildlife,wood-boring beetle gallery Click/tap to enlarge Promoted

Wood-boring Beetle Larva (Buprestidae) Gallery

I thought this gallery was really cool because it looks like handwriting. I think it was created by wood-boring beetle larvae (Buprestidae) because of the zigzag pattern. I'm totally sure though because the tunnels are short and end in exit holes. I always thought Buprestid larvae made longer tunnels.
