Giant Toktokkie - Tapping Beetle (Psammodes virago)

Giant Toktokkie - Tapping Beetle (Psammodes virago) Family Tenebrionidae
This tapping beetle must think this is a meal fit for a king....at least for him anyway. :) This little fellow is about 1 1/2 inches long. They tap their rear ends on the ground then stop and listen to hear if some female taps back. WHAT a way to pick up a partner!! LOL!!
