BEETLES
Summer Sandal
by Janet Spencer
J. B. S. Haldane was a British biologist. One day a theologian asked him what he could surmise about the nature of God after studying the biology of Earth. Haldane replied that, “God has an inordinate fondness for beetles.” Come along with Tidbits as we consider beetles!
A SUCCESS STORY
• Beetles are the largest group of animals on the planet. One out of every four known species on Earth, both plant and animal, is a beetle. Beetles are the largest genus of insect, accounting for one-third of all insect species. Over 350,000 species of beetle have been identified since 1758; that averages out to slightly more than four new species per day. Considering sheer numbers, beetles are the most successful animal on Earth. • The Old English word ‘bitula’ meaning ‘little biter’ gave us the word ‘beetle.’ The word ‘weevil’ (a genus of long-snouted beetles) comes from the German ‘webila’ meaning ‘swarming.’ The scientific name for the order of beetles is Coleoptera, from the Greek word ‘koleon’ meaning a sheath and ‘pteron’ meaning wing. Beetles have two sets of wings. The top set is hard and is used as protection, forming a kind of shell over the bottom set of wings, which are delicate and used for flying.
