Carrion Beetle, SEM

Item # 2959443

<p>Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Carrion (sexton) beetle head and thorax (Cryptarcha sp.). The genus Cryptarcha belongs to the family Nitidulidae and are common carrion beetles (also known as burying beetles or sap beetles). Cryptarchaspecies are part of the sub-family Cryptarchinae and have a life cycle of breeding on small carrion (dead animal carcass). Cryptarchabeetles will mate and lay eggs on a decaying carcass. If the carcass is small the adult male and female will dig the ground under it until the carcass is buried. When the burying beetle eggs hatch the larva then consume as much of the carcass as they can, pupate then become adults. Carrion beetles are important to forensic entomologists Magnification: x13 when shortest axis printed at 25 millimetres.</p>
