Description

This species of Carabid predatory ground beetle is found in SA’s Barossa valley, where they are found under the bark of eucalyptus trees near streams/creeks. This is a small beetle, about 9-13mm in length and is a nocturnal hunter of other small invertebrates.

These beetles can bite if handled roughly but do not have venom, so it will just be a small pinch that won’t draw blood.

Feed pinhead crickets 3 times a week.
