Anastrangalia dubia is a species of beetle of family Cerambycidae.
Subspecies and varietas within this species include: [1] [2]
Anastrangalia dubia can reach a length of 8–16 millimetres (0.31–0.63 in). [3] [4] The pronotum is narrow, bell-shaped, slightly hairy and considerably longer than wide. The elytrae are finely and uniformly punctured. Genders and variations of this species could have different colours. That way, the species can come as black, brown, or red coloured. Usually head, antennae, pronotum and legs are black. In the males the elytrae may be yellow-brown with a dark elytral suture and a more or less broad dark elytral edge, while in the females they are reddish-brown with or without blackish edges. Completely black specimens are more common in females, while in the males they are quite rare. [3] Similar species are Anastrangalia reyi and Anastrangalia sanguinolenta . In A. dubia on the head the angles of the cheeks are acute, while in A. reyi they are obtuse. [5]
Larvae of these of wood-boring beetles feed on dead wood, dead branches and tree stumps of various deciduous and coniferous trees (mainly fir, pine and spruce). The development requires two to three years. The adults fly from May to August. [3]
This species is found in montane and subalpine areas everywhere in Europe (except for Estonia). These beetles can also be found in African and Asian countries such as Algeria, Caucasus, North Iran, and Turkey. [3] [6]
Propylea quatuordecimpunctata is a small lady beetle, belonging to the family Coccinellidae. It is sometimes referred to by the common name 14-spotted ladybird beetle, or simply P-14.
Trox scaber is a beetle of the family Trogidae. The 5 to 8 mm long insect is found worldwide, including in Europe, and lives in bird nests.
Emmelia trabealis, the spotted sulphur, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Giovanni Antonio Scopoli his 1763 Entomologia Carniolica.
Valgus hemipterus is a smallish species of scarab beetle found in the Northern Hemisphere.

Calvia quatuordecimguttata, the cream-spot ladybird, is a species of ladybird in the family Coccinellidae. Its distribution is holarctic, it being found in Europe and through the East Palearctic to Japan. It is introduced to North America. This ladybird is generally 4 to 5 millimetres in length and varies in appearance depending on the geographical location. It usually lives in hedgerows and deciduous trees.
Stictoleptura rubra, the Red-brown Longhorn Beetle, is a species of beetles belonging to the family Cerambycidae.
Anastrangalia sanguinolenta is a species of flower longhorn beetles belonging to the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae.
Asemum striatum, the black spruce borer, is a beetle species belonging to the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Spondylidinae.
Clytus rhamni is a species of round-necked longhorns belonging to the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Cerambycinae.
Pachytodes cerambyciformis is a species of beetle belonging to the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae.
Stenurella melanura is a flower longhorn beetle species of the family Cerambycidae, subfamily Lepturinae.
Anastrangalia is a genus of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, containing the following species:
Anastrangalia montana is a species of beetle from family Cerambycidae, that could be found on Crete and Cyprus, in Greece, and in Asian countries like Syria and Turkey. The species, just like their other members of the family, have brown coloured pronotum (males), and black (females).
Anastrangalia reyi sequensi is a subspecies of beetle from the family Cerambycidae, that can be found in such Asian countries as China, Japan, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia. The species have brown pronotum.
Hippodamia notata is a species of ladybird belonging to the family Coccinellidae.
Ptosima undecimmaculata, the Splendour beetle, is a species of beetles in the family Buprestidae.
Alosterna tabacicolor is a species of beetle in family Cerambycidae.
Tillus elongatus is a species of beetle in the Family of checkered beetles Cleridae. It is found in the Palearctic. The “Holz” in the German common name Holzbuntkäfer indicates that these checkered beetles are found in wood. Although Tillus elongatus can reach up to a size of 1 cm long, the beetle is rarely seen by humans, as it primarily resides hidden in the wood of trees. The colouration of the males differs from that of the females.
Coptocephala unifasciata is a species of leaf beetle belonging to the family Chrysomelidae, subfamily Cryptocephalinae.
