Up to the present, hydnocistes, truffles and rhizopoga are the only food that I have known him to eat.

His larva lives exclusively in truffles. He is also an ardent lover of truffles. I tried to rear him in order to make the acquaintance of his grub; I housed him in a large earthen pan filled with fresh sand and enclosed in a bell cover. Possessing neither hydnocistes nor truffles, I served him up sundry mushrooms of a rather firm consistency, like those of his choice.
