A feeding experiment was established to elucidate the extent of granivory and phytophagy among 24 species of insectivorous carabid beetles. |
The eyes of the carabid are very prominent, which allows them to see their prey 484 at a great distance. |
The carabid larva is an active well-armoured grub with the legs and cerci variable in length. |
The study yielded new cave records for amphipods, isopods, diplurans, and carabid beetles. |
If you are using mulches in your garden, you are providing good carabid habitat. |
In the majority of cases, the terrestrial hosts are carnivorous animals such as carabid beetles, praying mantids or crickets. |
