ENTOMOLOGY FOR BEGINNERS

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  31 May 2012

Extract

This is a stout, hairy beetle (fig. 1) which makes its appearance early in spring, usually towards the end of April or beginning of May, flying about in open fields and about the borders of woods, with a loud buzzing sound, resembling that of a bumble bee. It belongs to the flower beetles, most of whom live on pollen and the honey of flowers, and are fond of sweets.
