Description: This strange African beetle has frilled antennae . This beetle is in the family Elateridae and are commonly known as click beetles or elater beetles. These odd beetles have sort of a hinge across their body that allows it to bend. If a click beetle ends up on its back it can’t roll over since its legs are to short. Instead, It bends its body then snaps with a clicking sound . This flings the beetle through the air. If the beetle ends up on its back again it just keeps snapping until it lands on it’s feet. Click beetles also do this when they are picked up, this can cause the predator to drop them.

ABOUT THE BUTTERFLIES AND INSECTS WE USE:
All of the real Butterflies and insects used in our framed shadowbox butterfly art have been raised on natural cruelty free tropical farms around the world. These educational farms, aviaries and co-ops provide a real source of income for native people who would otherwise have to sell trees off of their land or raise cattle which are both ecologically disastrous. Tropical insects are important members of these fragile ecosystems. If their natural habitats are allowed to disappear, then they to will vanish forever. Everything possible must be done to preserve them. Proudly hand making the highest museum quality framed insects one at a time since 1992.
