The Last Trilobite Beetle

Happened to meet one more 'trilobite beetle' while I was walking to my house in India. This last one was the biggest too, and the most active.

Apparently it has not been confirmed on what these creatures are. Like I said in the previous post about these beetles, they could be trilobite beetles or firefly larvae, or just some other beetle larvae. So to confirm I'll probably have to ask some expert about this and maybe even find more of these in India during this December Trip.

Did you know that trilobites came from around 150 million years ago? Anyway, can you find them in Singapore?

You must be very lucky to see trilobite beetles, Shawn.

Well yes, I knew that they come from a very early stage. In Singapore they can be found in the Central Nature Reserves but are very rare. This one's not confirmed to be a Trilobite Beelt eyet.
