The First Description of the Larva in the Genus Clinterocera Motschulsky (Coleoptera, Scarabaeidae: Cetoniinae)

Abstract

The larva of the type species of the genus Clinterocera Motschulsky is described and illustrated for the first time. The genus Clinterocera is similar to Crematocheilus Knoch in the larval characters but differs in the presence of ocelli and in the chaetotaxy of the head capsule. An original key to the genera of the subfamily Cetoniinae based on larvae is given for the fauna of the Russian Far East.
