Blister Beetle -
Mylabris phalerata
Mylabris is the dried beetle,
Mylabris phalerata
, Pallas (Order Coleoptera), which is abundant in China and Eastern India. The beetles are about 25 millimetres long and 9 millimetres broad; wing-cases black, with three broad, wavy, orange-yellow bands, which, when examined under a lens, are seen to bear black bristly hairs. The odour is disagreeable.
M. Cichorii
, which is often present in the drug, is smaller, and has brighter yellow bands, covered with a yellow downy pubescence, the hairs on the back part being black.
M. phalerata: With an oblong body, a triangular head, two large compound eyes, whippy and semented antennae. On the chest there is a pair of black leathery elytra with three orange, broad and transverse striae, and two membranous wings under the elytra. Feet in three pairs, usually dropped. Abdomen annularly segmented, covered with black hairs. Unpleasant in odour. M. cichoni: Smaller, with yellow hairs and yellow brown transverse striae on the wings. Both are acrid in taste, cold in nature, strongly toxic, and attributive to liver and stomach channels.
Frog-legged Jewel Beetle –
Sagra femorata
Distribution: S. China, SE Asia
Body size: 8 - 22 mm
This is a leaf beetle (Chrysomelidae). Sub-family, the Sagrinae. The genus Sagra has over 50 different types of large stately, all have a magnificent metallic coloring and heavily thickened, while males gezähnte addition, but not appropriate for jumping back leg. The spread of about 50 species of this genus ranges from Africa, Madagascar, India, China to the world and East Asian island is once again an example of how, despite strict separation of Oriental and African animal region commonalities exist. The nature Sagra femorata takes its name from the Hinterschenkeln thickened.
Golden Edge Firefly -
Lychnuris analis
Order:
Coleoptera
Suborder:
Polyphaga
Infraorder:
Elateriformia
Superfamily:
Elateroidea
Family:
Lampyridae
Genus: Pyrocoelia
The females of this species are larviform and wingless, similar to the British glow-worm.
fireflies
or
lightning bugs
are typically known for their conspicuous crepuscular use of bioluminescence to attract mates or prey. Fireflies produce a "cold light", with no infrared or ultraviolet frequencies. This chemically produced light from the lower abdomen may be yellow, green, or pale-red, with wavelengths from 510 to 670 nanometers.
About 2,000 species of firefly are found in temperate and tropical environments. Many are in marshes or in wet, wooded areas where their larvae have abundant sources of food. These larvae emit light and often are called "glowworms", in particular, in Eurasia. In the Americas, "glow worm" also refers to the related Phengodidae. In many species, both male and female fireflies have the ability to fly, but in some species, females are flightless.
Fireflies tend to be brown and soft-bodied, often with the elytra (front wings) more leathery than in other beetles. Although the females of some species are similar in appearance to males, larviform females are found in many other firefly species. These females can often be distinguished from the larvae only because they have compound eyes. The most commonly known fireflies are nocturnal, although there are numerous species that are diurnal. Most diurnal species are nonluminescent; however, some species that remain in shadowy areas may produce light.
A few days after mating, a female lays her fertilized eggs on or just below the surface of the ground. The eggs hatch three to four weeks later, and the larvae feed until the end of the summer. The larvae are commonly called glowworms, not to be confused with the distinct beetle family Phengodidae or fly genus
Arachnocampa
. Lampyrid larvae have simple eyes. The term glowworm is also used for both adults and larvae of species such as
Lampyris noctiluca
, the common European glowworm, in which only the nonflying adult females glow brightly and the flying males glow only weakly and intermittently.
Fireflies hibernate over winter during the larval stage, some species for several years. Some do this by burrowing underground, while others find places on or under the bark of trees. They emerge in the spring. After several weeks of feeding, they pupate for 1.0 to 2.5 weeks and emerge as adults. The larvae of most species are specialized predators and feed on other larvae, terrestrial snails, and slugs. One such species is
Alecton discoidalis
, which is found in Cuba. Some are so specialized, they have grooved mandibles that deliver digestive fluids directly to their prey. Adult diet varies. Some are predatory, while others feed on plant pollen or nectar.
