3-15 mm, cylindrical beetles similar to the bark beetles in appearance. The head faces downward and is covered by the front part of the neck shield. The head of the larva is small and globular. They develop in the dead or dying wood of a range of broad-leaved trees, particularly hardwoods. Their typical representative in Hungary is the 6-15 mm long black and red Bostrichus capucinus.
