Ampedus
''Ampedus'' is a genus of click beetles in the family Elateridae. There are currently 461 recognized species of ''Ampedus'' beetles. It has a cosmopolitan distribution, but is found mostly in the Holarctic region, primarily in North America, Europe, and Asia. The oldest known fossil from this genus was found in Eocene Baltic amber, estimated to be from 38.0–33.9 million years ago. Natural history Life cycle ''Ampedus'' larvae burrow in rotting wood, pupating in mid-summer. The larvae feed on wood, with a preference for wood in more advanced stages of decay, and are also observed to be cannibalistic on other saproxylic larvae. They emerge as adults a few weeks later, but remain in the pupal cell through the following winter. Adult ''Ampedus'' beetles are thought to be diurnal. As adults, they are pollen-feeders, found in large numbers on flowers and vegetation. ''Ampedus'' females attract males for mating through chemical communication, using specialized pheromone glands, ...
