Caddisfly on a Click Beetle
16.7127, -92.6147
Field Notes
Description:
This is a Caddisfly sitting on a Click Beetle. The Beetle was busy playing dead, so it didn't move away. Caddisflies have aquatic larvae that make very interesting cases out of whatever material is in the water, to protect themselves from predators.
Habitat:
Both insects came to an ultraviolet light in the garden which is very close to our mountain wetlands.
