TIGER-BEETLES
Have you walked along a bare
path and seen a small hole in the
ground suddenly appear a yard in
front of you? And did you insert a
weed stem gently into the hole for
a few inches? Did it wiggle so you
knew something was at the other
end? And then did you quickly jerk
up the straw and thus toss out a
somewhat humpbacked “worm” or
grub about three-fourths of an inch
long?
j.nat was the larva (grub stage)
of a Tiger beetle, and was one of
the 25 known forms to inhabit this
State. That grub or worm is preda
ceous, feeding on such small insects.
It constructs that burrow as its
home. When hungry it comes to the
top and lies with head plugging the
hole and jaws open, awaiting a vic
tim. At the approach of a large
animal (like you) it drops down the
burrow (whereupon the hole “ap
pears”), but if a small insect comes
within reach it will sieze it, drag it
into the burrow and devour it.
This larva is hump-backed, and
on the hump are several little hook
ed spines; if it happens to sieze an
insect large enough to possibly drag
it from its burrow it will anchor
its«4f by sticking these hooks into
the sides of the burrow, thus gain
ing a moment to let go its hold.
That’s why you fail to “catch*’ the
worm unless you jerk the straw out
quickly.
When that larv a is full grown
it changes into a pupa (still in the
burrow) and from this it changes
into the adult Tiger beetle, so named
because the beetle is also preda
ceous, and, also, the adults are us
ually marked with spots or stripes.
These adult Tiger beetles live along
paths, roadsides, on sand-bars, 1
clear areas, etc., and are one half
to one inch long, and will often fly
up and ahead for a few yards and
alight, usually facing you.
The adults of some species are !
brilliantly colored, green, bronze, |
or coppery, perhaps bordered with
brown or blackish but show bronzy
under lens, and usually have some
marks or dots of white. Several
species near our coasts have much
white, matching the white sand of
the areas where they live. All are
rather long-legged, gracefully form
ed, and of active, alert habits. They
are a favorite group among collect
ors of insects. They feed upon in
sects in general and are considered
to be somewhat beneficial.
