The great capricorn beetle is one of the largest longhorn beetles in Central Europe, reaching body lengths of 24 - 53 mm. | | |

The antennae of the females are about half the length of the males'. Thethorax is black. The great capricorn beetle can produce sounds by rubbing the prothorax and mesothorax together. | | |

The tibia and feet (tarsi) are covered with short blackish bristles. The great capricorn beetle can be confused with other longhorn beetles like Cerambyx welensii or Cerambyx miles. | | |
| | The acorn weevil reaches body lengths of 4 - 9 mm. Its colouration varies from reddish-brown to yellowish-brown. The head of the beetle is extended by a long proboscis and is as long as the female body and only slightly shorter than the male’s.

| | .... The fertilized females lay their eggs just below the surface of the soil (usually in chaff or leaves). The larvae of Lagria hirta are cream to light brown in colour. They feed on rotting leaves or on peat. The development of the larvae from egg to beetle takes 9 months, from autumn to spring. Lagria hirta overwinter in the larval stage. In May of the following year, the larvae pupate and hatch as adult beetles. | | |
