Adults hunt for xylophagous beetles on logs and branches of various trees and shrubs. Larvae live mostly under bark but sometimes dwell on the surface of wood as well. Distribution. The bulk of species are distributed in the two Americas. Only a few species spread through to the Palaearctic region. Several species tend to cosmopolitanism ( Temnoscheila caerulea , Temnoscheila virescens ). Species: Temnoscheila acuta LeConte, 1858; Texas (JRB) Leveille , A. 1910: 10 ( Temnochila ). Barron, J.
