This is a rare beetle in Nottinghamshire, with just three reported
records. Two of these have come from Wollaton Hall, with the last coming
as long ago as 1985 (Wright, S.).
However, there is a much more recent county record, when found indoors
at a site in Epperstone by Adrian Dutton, who kindly allowed the use of
his photograph produced below. Sometimes called the Churchyard Beetle,
it is often found in old damp buildings, outhouses and caves etc, but
has always been something of a rarity in Nottinghamshire for some
reason. |
