These predatory feeders are most active at night and will fake death if they feel threatened. This family of beetles will occupy almost any kind of Ecological niche, niche throughout the world. Hister beetles have proved useful during forensic investigations to help in time of death estimation. Also, certain species are used in the control of livestock pests that infest Feces, dung and to control houseflies. Because they are Predation, predacious and will even eat other Hister beetles, they must be isolated when collected. Characteristics The Hister beetles are easily identified by their shiny elytra which is typically shiny ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
