Stictoleptura variicornis is a species of longhorn beetle in the Lepturinae subfamily. It was described by Johan Wilhelm Dalman in 1817 and can be found in Poland, Russia, Ukraine, and the Baltic States. [1] It can also be found in Asian countries like Mongolia and North Korea. [2]
The species is brown coloured with blackish-brown legs and antennae. The life span is 3 years, with a flight from June–August. [3] Larvae live beneath the bark of dead wood, creating a pupal cell after its second hibernation. It can be found near Filipendula palmata flowers. [4]
