Apomecyna is a genus of beetle in the family Cerambycidae, containing over 80 species worldwide, primarily in the Old World. Many species use plants in the family Cucurbitaceae as hosts.
Beetles in this genus are cylindrical and elongate with thick antennae that are shorter than the body. The antennae have the third segment as long or longer than the fourth and much longer than the first. The fifth and subsequent antennal segments are short. The eye is emarginate with the ventral lobe running transverse. Underneath the body, there is a narrow prosternal process while the mesosternal process slopes towards the apex. [1]
Monochamus is a genus of longhorn beetles found throughout the world.
