a false powder-post beetle - Xylopsocus capucinus common name: a false powderpost beetle (Fabricius) (Insecta: Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) (Fabricius) has previously been intercepted at ports of entry into the U.S. on many occasions in a wide variety of plant materials. However, Fisher (1950) stated that it "...has not become established in the United States." On 14 March 1978, specimens were collected from cassava branches at Homestead, Florida, by J. Peña, and subsequent surveys indicate that the species is definitely established as a part of the Florida fauna.
