Habitat Preferences of Notaris acridulus Through Different Life Stages
Eggs of notaris acridulus are typically deposited in the soil near host plants, such as legumes. Larvae reside underground too, feeding on plant roots, so they would typically be found by carefully digging around the host plant root zones. Once they become pupae, these insects remain in the soil, requiring a deeper and more meticulous search within the vicinity of where the larvae were found. Finally, adult notaris acridulus are found on or near their host plants, and searching for them involves inspecting the foliage or flowers of these plants during the day.

When is the Best Time to Observe Notaris acridulus
The best time to find notaris acridulus will vary; however, searching during the active periods such as warm days or at dusk when adults are most likely to be foraging can increase chances of locating them. Each life stage might have different temporal activity patterns.
Rectangle
What is the Best Weather to Observe Notaris acridulus
Notaris acridulus may be more visible during dry weather conditions for the adults, which avoids the rain. Conversely, larval notaris acridulus may be found in moister conditions, which are more conducive to their developmental habitats.
Rectangle
How and Where Can You Find Notaris acridulus at Different Life Stages
Larva Notaris acridulus larvae are typically found in soil, rotting wood, or within their host plants. Search for them by carefully turning over logs, rocks, or leaf litter, and by inspecting the roots and lower stems of potential host plants.
Pupal Notaris acridulus pupae are usually immobile and camouflaged within the environment. They can be found in soil or within plant debris. To locate them, examine the ground and look for pupal cases, particularly near the larval food source.
Adult Notaris acridulus beetles can often be seen on vegetation, flowers, or tree trunks. They can be found by visual searches during the day or with the use of light traps at night. Gently sweep through vegetation or tap branches to dislodge and reveal adults.

Hurt Plant

Notaris acridulus attacks various plant species. During its larval and adult stages, it chews on roots, stems, and leaves. This persistent feeding can result in defoliation, stem damage, and root decline in host plants, leading to mild to severe impacts on plant health and productivity.
