The red-striped oil beetle is a large beetle, about 5 cm long, with bright red bands across its body. It lives in dry, sunny places around the western Mediterranean, including Portugal, Spain and North Africa. It is special because it can squirt a caustic liquid when it is attacked.1

When attacked, it can squirt a caustic liquid, the same defence used by other oil and blister beetles in the family Meloidae.1

When attacked, it squirts a caustic liquid, and its bright red bands warn predators of this.1

Dintlha

1

If a larva picks a honey bee as its host, it dies in the hive.1

2

The larvae change form several times during development, which is called hypermetamorphosis.1

3

Unlike some related beetles, the first larval stage does not wait on a host. It actively searches for one.1

4

Its larvae are only about 3 mm long, far smaller than the adult beetle.1

5

Entirely black and red-striped beetles are equally poisonous.1
