Acteniceromorphus volitans

Acteniceromorphus volitans is a species of click beetle (family Elateridae). The genus name suggests morphological similarity to the genus Actenicerus, a group of elaterid beetles. As a member of the click beetle family, it possesses the characteristic prosternal process that fits into a mesosternal groove, enabling the "clicking" mechanism used for righting itself when overturned. The species epithet "volitans" is Latin for "flying" or "hovering," though the significance of this name for the species' biology is not documented.
