  • The baby stage of the ultralisk.

  • @dinodude36 Sure, but they are "actual beetles" before the metamorphose too. There are plenty of trilobite beetles that turn into something more recognizable (ie, the Lampyridae family) but this is a special case of one that does not metamorphose. It's a conceptual problem: we also say a chicken comes out of an egg, but we don't say the egg is the chicken before it hatches: even though, clearly, the idea of "egg" also includes the chicken inside.

  • @memutic Hey Memutic i gotta ask you something don't you find it odd that the trilobyte beetle can be in the same shape of the original trilobyte?,i mean its like they evolved into other shapes overtime or something, but overall you just earned yourself another subscriber because of this footage

  • big body, mini head

  • anyone else watching unusual creatures?

  • cool bug

  • Scratch that it's just the larval stage of a netwing beetle

  • Judging by the way it moves and that the 6 legs are at the front of the body its not a beetle it's a kind of caterpillar
