Dromaeolus californicus is a species of false click beetle in the family Eucnemidae, described by Bonvouloir in 1875. The species is known from western North America, with distribution records from British Columbia, Canada. Like other members of the family Eucnemidae, it belongs to the elateroid beetles and is characterized by the inability to produce the clicking sound typical of true click beetles (Elateridae). The genus Dromaeolus is part of a group of eucnemids often associated with decaying wood and forest habitats.
