    Decorated Click Beetle

    Eanus decoratus is a species of click beetle in the family Elateridae, first described by Mannerheim in 1853. Commonly known as the Decorated Click Beetle, this species occurs across western and northern Canada. Like other elaterids, it possesses the distinctive clicking mechanism that allows these beetles to right themselves when flipped onto their backs. The species is documented in museum collections and has been recorded in multiple Canadian provinces.
