}} Athous vittatus is a species of beetle in the family Elateridae and the genus Athous. DescriptionAthous vittatus can reach a length of about {{convert|8|-|12|mm}}. The body is slightly hairy. Pronotum is generally dark brown, while elytra are usually chestnut or reddish brown with dark brown longitudinal stripes in the middle and in the outer edges. Also the legs have a light brown colour.[2]This species is closely related and similar to Athous haemorrhoidalis.[3] BiologyLarvae develop in the soil feeding on the roots of various herbaceous plants. They puppate from late May until early June. Adults are associated with a wide range of broadleaved trees, especially Beech (Fagus sylvatica), Hornbeam (Carpinus betulus), Oak (Quercus spp.), Walnut (Juglans regia) and Alder trees (Alnus glutinosa).[2][4] Distribution and habitatThis species is present in most of Europe and in the Near East. It is widespread and common in England. [5][6] It especially occurs in mixed and broadleaved woodlands.[2] It can be found in plain and lowlands and in highlands, at an elevation of {{convert|350|-|6000|m}} above sea level, but in the Alps it can reach above 1200 m.[4]References1. ^[https://www.biolib.cz/en/taxon/id9254/ Biolib] {{Taxonbar|from=Q2373240}}2. ^1 2 Elateridae of the British Islands 3. ^Anna Wysocka, Agnieszka Kaczmarczyk, Lech Buchholz and Jerzy Sell - Morphologically Intermediate form between Athous haemorrhoidalis and A. vittatus (Coleoptera: Elateridae): A Case of Hybridization? a Preliminary Study 4. ^1 Northeastern France woodlands Coleoptera ecological atlas 5. ^[https://insects.tamu.edu/research/collection/hallan/test/Arthropoda/Insects/Coleoptera/Family/Elateridae.txt Elateridae in Synopsis of the described Coleoptera of the World] 6. ^Fauna Europaea 2 : Beetles described in 1793|Denticollinae |
