Calopteron terminale is distinguished from other members of Calopteron by its "transverse depression across the elytra".[2][3] It is found in woodlands, particularly in eastern North American deciduous forests,[2] most frequently between July and September.[4] The eggs are deposited on dead and dying trees; after hatching the larvae then prey on small arthropods under the bark.[2]
