Abstract	Introduction The longhorn beetles are known for their diversity and they are cosmopolitan in nature. Most of the cases both adult and grubs are pestiferous in nature by attacking various forest, plantation and fruit crop. The study of the longhorn beetles in between northern and eastern India is very poorly documented. Gahan (1906), Breuning, (1939, 1938 & 1953) and Majumder et al., (2014 & 2015) have made the primary attempt to record the longhorn beetle species from this region. Kariyanna et al., (2017) reported the all available longhorn beetles from India with their synonyms. The state contains 7.1 per cent of the forest cover in respect to its total land area. Most of the area contains a dry deciduous forest tree which harbour more number of the longhorn beetle species. The present study is an endeavour to provide the complete document of longhorn beetles from India. Catalogue of Longhorn Beetles of Bihar Sub-family: Cerambycinae Tribe: Achrysini Nortia J. Thomson, 1864: 252 (type sp.: Nortia cavicollis J. Thomson, 1864). Nortia fuscata Holzschuh, 2005 Synonyms: Nortia fuscata Holzschuh, 2005 Distribution: India (Bihar) & Nepal. Tribe: Cerambycini International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Special Issue-7 pp. 576-583 Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com The longhorn beetles attracting more number of researcher due to their pest nature and diversity. The present study has consolidated longhorn beetle fauna of Bihar, which comprising 15 species, 14 genera, 11 tribes under three subfamilies. Among the subfamilies, the Cerambycinae and Lamiinae shares seven species each and Prioninae consist of one longhorn beetle species. The sal heartwood borer, Hoplocerambyx spinicornis (Newman, 1842), Batocera rufomaculata (Degeer, 1775), Trirachys holosericeus (Fabricius, 1787) are considered as the most devastating insect pests of forest in Bihar and adjacent states.
