shell lang and scarab are not the same thing.

The common name of the scarab is the scarab, not the shell. The dung shell lang is a common name for dung beetles.

1. Scarab.

Scarabs are invertebrates, insects, and Coleoptera are omnivorous pests.

Body features: oblong, dorsal wings hard, body length about 20 mm, width about 10 mm. It is reddish-brown at the beginning of the featuration, and then gradually darkens into reddish-brown or black, and the whole body is covered with a thin layer of pale blue-gray glittering powder, and the lateral margin of the prothorax is acutely angled, and the anterior margin is densely covered with yellowish-brown body hair.

The abdomen is cylindrical, and the ventral surface is slightly shiny.

Second, the shell Lang.

It is the common name of dung beetle, which belongs to the subfamily dung beetle of the beetle family.

Body characteristics: black or dark brown in general, the front of the male head is fan-shaped, ** there is a large and upward gradually slender horn process at the base, the horn process is about long and slightly curved backward, there is a smooth narrow band between the compound eyes, and the antennae terminal segment is long comb-like. There is a transverse ridge in the middle of the dorsal plate of the prothoracic plate, the ridge is interrupted and slightly bent forward into an obtuse angle, and there is a long dentate horn process at each end, and there is a shallow depression in the anterior and lower part of the horn process, and a deep depression on the outside of the superficial depression.

The appearance of females is quite different from that of males. The main manifestations are the head ** without angular process, flat at the back, oblate and raised in front, and a transverse ridge at the apex; The transverse ridge of the dorsal plate of the prothoracic plate is nearly straight, with dentate angularities at the ends of both sides, and only the lateral deep concave is clearly visible.

1. Meaning. 1. Scarab is the general name of insects of the Scarab family, belonging to invertebrates, insects, Coleoptera, there are about 30,000 species in the world, and there are about 1,300 species in China. It can be found on continents other than Antarctica.

2. Dung shell lang is the common name of dung beetle, belonging to the subfamily dung beetle of the beetle family, and many people call it dung finch type (gè) mantis, than room, push pills, dung cow, dung cow, dung rolling lang, etc.

2. Eating habits. 1. Scarabidae have different feeding habits, some feed on plant roots, stems and leaves, some feed on putrid organic matter, and some feed on feces. The larvae mostly live in the soil and feed on the organic matter in the soil.

Some are omnivorous pests that feed on underground parts such as roots and tubers or seedlings of plants, and damage the above-ground parts of plants, such as leaves, flowers, buds and fruits.

2. Dung beetles not only feed on dung, but also roll the dung into balls and store them in the nest, removing the garbage on the ground for humans in a large area, playing an indispensable role in the ecological chain, and has the title of "scavenger of nature", also known as "Mo Duo Sheng".

3. Economic importance.

1. Many species in the beetle family will cause harm to economic plants, such as the adult beetle of small blue and white beetles is harmful to the leaves and roots of apple trees; Red-footed golden beetle and dark green golden beetle cause serious damage to chestnut and seriously affect the yield of chestnut.

2. Dung beetles can clean up animal feces, inhibit other pests that feed on feces, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. According to a report by the Institute of Biological Sciences, dung beetles save Paiyin the U.S. cattle industry $100 million a year in manure clean-up costs.

In Australia, the original dung beetle breed only prefers to eat small droppings such as kangaroo droppings, and does not like exotic cow and sheep droppings. Later, under the leadership of Dr. George Bonemissza, 23 species of dung beetles from around the world were successfully introduced, resulting in improved manure accumulation in Australian pastures while reducing about 90% of harmful bushflies.

Encyclopedia - Scarab.

Encyclopedia - Shell Lang.

The dung shell and the beetle are two different insects, and although they are somewhat similar in appearance, they belong to different families and genera. The scarab is a beetle, while the beetle is a longhorn beetle.

It is said that in ancient times, people believed that the appearance of the shell lang was very similar to ** pure command, so they called it "golden beetle". And the term "turtles" is named because they move slowly and crawl like turtles. Later, the "golden beetle" gradually evolved into the "scarab", which became another name for the shell lang who was Xiangchun.

It should be noted that this is just a feast and a legend and has no scientific basis, so it should not be used as the only reason why the shell lang is called a scarab.

After watching Fabre's "Insects", I learned that the common name of the scarab with a beautiful name is actually the dung shell lang - an insect that feeds on large dung, and can roll a good dung ball, which is a bit similar to Gao Yu in "Water Margin" who can kick a good ball.

This immediately reminds me of the host of the ** TV children's program "Big Windmill" that has watched N years ago, and Liu Chunyan, who appeared in the image of a scarab. The children all call her Sister Scarab, in the past two years, I look at her, I feel that the traces of pretending to be tender are particularly obvious, people are obviously old, and they still have a head like a toilet lid, and they can't afford to be tender, so don't install it. When I look at her now, I laugh, because when the children call her Sister Scarab, I call her Sister Scarab Lang in my heart.

Ha ha! I don't know what consideration was given to the host Liu Chunyan as the image of the scarab at the beginning of the "Big Windmill" program n years ago, I guess they must not have known that the scarab was actually a shitshell at that time, because the popular science knowledge was not popular at that time, especially these small animals in the insect world, and thought that they belonged to two kinds of insects. I just think the name Scarab is good, a bit like a Japanese girl's name, and the bug looks a little clumsy and cute, which is very suitable for children's aesthetics, so it's designed. It may be that insect knowledge was popularized later, but it was too late and could not be changed.

But if I had known that Scarab was a shell who dealt with dung and eggs all day long, I guess that Liu Chunyan would definitely not agree.
