Coleoptera Insecta Arthropoda Animalia Flora and Fauna
Coleoptera is a large taxon of insects with about 300,000 described species. The body of most beetles is heavily sclerotized. The forewings are sclerotized elytra, or wing covers, that do not participate in flight. Beetle larvae are known as grubs and do not resemble adults.
