||
| Necrodes littoralis is one of the large (up to nearly 25mm) Burying Beetles, sometimes known as Sexton Beetles. They feed on carrion, burying the corpses of dead birds or mice and the adults are often attracted to light. This one turned up at an MV light trap operated at Clipstone Old Quarter in late September 2011. | ||
