Rhino Beetle with Whip Scorpion Parasites
Category: Insects | Date: Apr 23 2007 | By: tumaren
We found this Rhino Beetle the other day and as we were examining him we noticed several Whip Scorpions attached to the back of his abdomen. I remember in EO Wilsons book “The Diversity of Life” a description of another Whip Scorpion parasite on another beetle. Interesting, I wonder if this species is described.
- Also see other smaller egg type things near the Whip Scorpion. I don’t know if these are eggs or another parasite.
