Platerodrilus Ijenensis
''Platerodrilus'' is a genus of beetles of the family Lycidae. They commonly appear in the literature under the name ''Duliticola'', which is an obsolete junior synonym. The females retain a larval form as adults (larviform females) and are about 40–80 mm in length. The females and larvae have a flattened, dark body with large scales over the head, resembling trilobites, hence the informal names trilobite beetle, trilobite larva or Sumatran trilobite larva. Additionally, the females feed on rotting wood, fungi, slime molds, and small organisms, which helps break down decay. In contrast, the males are much smaller, 8–9 mm, resembling other lycid beetles. The males are likely to feed on nectar for energy to fly and mate. Species are found in tropical forests of India and South-east Asia. Although the females resemble the prehistoric trilobite, the trilobite beetle evolved approximately 47 million years ago, 200 million years after trilobites had gone extinct. As only ...

Maurice Pic
Maurice Pic (23 March 1866, in Marrigny near Digoin – 29 December 1957, in Les Guerreaux) was a French entomologist who specialised in Coleoptera. He contributed to Mary-Louis Fauconnet's ''Catalogue raisonné des coléoptères de Saône-et-Loire'' (Le Creusot, Martet, 1887) and wrote many short papers, many in ''L'Échange, Revue Linnéenne'' describing world beetles. His most important work was for Sigmund Schenkling's still very relevant ''Coleopterorum Catalogus''. Pic's collection is in the Muséum national d'histoire naturelle The French National Museum of Natural History ( ; abbr.
