Longhorn Beetles (Cerambycidae:Coleoptera) of Himachal Pradesh

The taxonomic study of the family cerambycidae is very poor in Himachal Pradesh. Contributions of Breuning (1937, 1958, 1965), Beeson and Bhatia (1939), Basak and Biswas (1993), Mukhopadhyay (2011), Saha et al. (2013) were enriched the cerambycid fauna of this state. Later, few publications were made on other aspects than taxonomy of cerambycidae by Uniyal and Mathur (1998), Singh, and Verma (1998), Bhargava and Uniyal (2011). Therefore, an attempt has been taken to prepare a consolidated taxonomic account of the cerambycid species reported from the Himachal Pradesh. After consulting all the available literatures on Cerambycidae of India it is enumerate that, 37 species under 27 genera of 17 tribes belonging to 4 subfamilies of Crambycidae were reported from this state.
