They have so many types... We considered them as deadly pest and manufactured poisonous pesticides to kill them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermestidae Earlier I thought it is June beetle. But its eyes are of this family type.
I can't seem to find any scarab beetles that looks like this one Ashish, do you know of a resource I can use?
Look to be a scarab beetle. Nice shot.
Any help with ID'ing would be much appreciated.
