A timid beetle(?)

1y 11mon ago by lemmy.world/u/lath in bugs

What's its name? I've seen some before, but rarely. Once every few years or so. Thanks

Edit: the likeliest candidate is an Old House Borer without antennae.

Johnny.

The lack of antennae is confusing.

Also, while searching, didn't realize fireflies were beetles.

That's a good name. Told it before it left, Johnny be good.

And yeah, fireflies are weird. Beautiful, but weird.

I bet when that was a larvae it spent it's time gnawing through some dead wood;)

There is a lot of dead wood in the immediate area.

Edit: so it seems to be a Old House Borer, but it lacks the antennae.

It's that another name for Aegosoma scabricorne?

Seem to be the same family.

How about a location?

No.

Anyway, it seems to be an Old House Borer, but lacking its antennae.
