Cotinis nitida, commonly known as the green June beetle, June bug or June beetle, [1] is a beetle of the family Scarabaeidae. It is found in the eastern United States and Canada, where it is most abundant in the South. It is sometimes confused with the related southwestern species figeater beetle Cotinis mutabilis, which is less destructive.
Erotylidae, or the pleasing fungus beetles, is a family of beetles belonging to Cucujoidea containing over 100 genera.

Dynastes tityus is known by a number of common names, including eastern Hercules beetle, elephant beetle and ox beetle. [1] It was first given a scientific name by Carl Linnaeus, in his 1763 work Centuria Insectorum, where it was called Scarabaeus tityus; when Linnaeus' genus Scarabaeus was divided into smaller genera, S. tityus was renamed Dynastes tityus.
Beetle is a British party game in which one draws a beetle in parts. The game may be played solely with pen, paper and a die or using a commercial game set, some of which contain custom scorepads and dice and others which contain pieces which snap together to make a beetle/bug.
The probability of a beetle guarding is dependent on both the sex ratio and the size of an individual. A larger beetle is more likely to guard than a smaller beetle because smaller beetles require more energy to maintain guarding and are thus unable to compete with larger beetles, so the smaller beetles get little marginal benefit by guarding.
Buprestidae is a family of beetles known as jewel beetles or metallic wood-boring beetles because of their glossy iridescent colors. Larvae of this family are known as flatheaded borers.

Although color polymorphism gives each beetle phenotype distinctly unique color patterns, there is no evidence that shows that this leads to disassortative mating amongst the beetles, or that beetles show any sort of preferential selection towards beetles of a similar color. Mating has been demonstrated to be completely random.
