... The taxonomy of Philippine Cerambycidae (or long-horned beetles) has recently gained momentum through the works of both foreign and Philippine taxonomists. Within the last decade, several species of cerambycids have been added to Philippine fauna with the majority of the species from the sub-family Lamiinae (flat-faced long-horned beetles) (Barševskis 2015, Barševskis 2016a, Barševskis 2018, Barševskis et al. 2020a, Barševskis et al 2020b, Barševskis et al 2022, Barševskis & Medina 2021, Barševskis & Medina 2023, Medina et al., 2021a, Medina et al 2021b, Medina et al 2022a, Vitali 2019, Vitali & Medina 2023, Vives 2009, Vives 2012a, Vives 2012b, Vives 2013, Vives 2015. The sub-family Lamiinae constitutes at least 70-75% of Philippine cerambycids (Roguet 2024, Tavakilian & Chevillotte 2023, comprising roughly 1500 described species in the Philippines, and this number is continuously rising as more new species and/or new genera are being added each year. ...

... Since early and up to the present times, the majority of the works on Philippine beetles, particularly on Cerambycidae fauna is, focused mainly on cataloging, providing new faunistic records (e.g., Baer, 1886;Schultze, 1916;Hüdepohl, 1987Hüdepohl, , 1996Medina et al. 2021a) or taxonomy (e.g., Breuning, 1980;Barsevskis, 2014Barsevskis, a,b, 2016Medina et al. 2021b). Since most of the materials used by foreign taxonomists come from local collectors, ecologic data about the species is often missing. ...
