Endangered
Pseudogaurotina excellens
Pseudogaurotina excellens
This beetle is distributed in Europe.
The beetle
Beetles are the largest insect order. The hard forewings (elytra) cover the flight wings; larvae and adults often eat different things.
An insect has six legs and, in winged forms, one or two pairs of wings. Most named species in this catalog are known from a type series and a locality, not from a popular field guide.
Range and habitat
This beetle is distributed in Europe.
GBIF currently lists 21 occurrence points. Those points follow where people logged the taxon — museum drawers and surveys included — not a closed range boundary.
Pins are Wikidata “endemic to” fields. Orange dots, when present, are GBIF occurrence tiles — survey bias included.
Life history
Life history follows the order: complete metamorphosis in moths and beetles, nymphs in grasshoppers and bugs. This page does not invent a host plant that no source named.
In crisis
Pseudogaurotina excellens is Endangered on this catalog because that is the IUCN category stored on Wikidata. Confirm the official criteria and any later count on iucnredlist.org.
