Excerpt from Insect Enemies of the Spruce in the Northeast: A Popular Account of Results of Special Investigations, With Recommendations for Preventing Losses These observations would also indicate that activity ceases in the fall by about the middle of October, when all stages of the insect may occur in the bark of infested trees where they, with the probable exceptions of the eggs and pupae, remain until the first week in June. Activity then commences, the mature larvae change to pupae, and by the middle of June those that pass the winter in the adult stage emerge and commence to excavate galleries and deposit eggs. The adults from the hibernating larvae of different stages, develop and continue to emerge possibly until the last of August. Therefore the eggs deposited by the late-developing beetles produce larvae which do not complete their development until July or August of the next year. Thus, the period of development may vary from about seventy days to about twelve months, but all broods from eggs to matured and emerging adults remain in the bark about twelve months, of which they are dormant about seven and one-half and active four and one half.
