| Hylecoetus
dermestoides |
||
| The commoner of the two representatives of the Lymexylidae family in the UK, although Hylecoetus dermestoides still attains NB status. Like Lymexylon navale, this beetle is an extremely slender species and unlikely to be confused with any other beetle apart from one of the red coloured Soldier Beetles. Found commonly and often observed in flight at Sherwood Forest CP during late April and May. The male is illustrated in the lower two photographs. | ||
