“…The estimate of total Cerambycidae richness suggested by the species accumulation curve may be relevant only to the subset of species that would be caught by Malaise trapping as adults, in a forest habitat, at ground level. This suggestion is given some support by comparison with the species collected by Waqa-Sakiti et al (2014) on Viti Levu by rearing from rotting timber. Although there is some uncertainty due to both studies collecting new/undescribed species, of the eighteen Cerambycidae types obtained in the previous study at least eight were not recorded by Malaise trapping in the current study, and 11 (61%) were not captured during the three Malaise trapping events on Viti Levu.…”

The study by Waqa-Sakiti et al (2014) also highlighted seasonal differences in species occurrence and relative abundance. Although sampling in the current study was active over most months of the year, there was no single location that was studied continuously over a 12 month period to give a higher chance of recording species with narrow adult flight periods (Tikoca et al 2016b).…”

“…P. melanura , Arhopalus coreanus, Cephalallus unicolor, Phloeopsis bioculata, Boninella degenerata, B. satoi, Monochamus alternatus (Sugiura et al 2008), M. saltuarius (Kim et al 2006) and Tragosoma depsarium (Wikars 2004). Some species have been found in Schima woods i.e., Psephactus scabripennis, Ceresium signaticolle, Xylotrechus ogasawarensis, Chlorophorus boninensis, and C. kobayashii (Sugiura et al 2008); and in Agathis woods i.e., Sormida cinerea (Waqa-Sakiti et al 2014). 8 The highest diversity of longhorn beetles was found in the natural forest, followed in order by the pine forest, the mixed forest, the Schima forest, and the Agathis forest.…”

“…Different species of longhorn beetle will choose different species of tree or shrub (Sakenin et al 2011). Some species of longhorn beetle live only in specific host plants, while other species can inhabit a variety of plants (Waqa-Sakiti et al 2014). The longhorn beetle's life depends on the presence of trees, and it can therefore be used as an indicator of the condition of a forest (Ohsawa 2010;Noerdjito 2011;Lachat et al 2012).…”
