| Tillus elongatus |
||
| A distinctive species, Tillus elongatus is usually found on dead wood where it feeds on the larvae of another beetle Ptilinus pecticornis. Described as being local in the UK, the male differs from the female by being all black, whilst the female has a red pronutum. This is an active species, with this one being one of the most difficult to photograph, rarely staying still enough. It was found on a standing dead Beech trunk at Warsop Wood in June 2010. | ||
