Statira hirsuta
Statira hirsuta is a species of long-jointed beetle in the family Tenebrionidae, subfamily Lagriinae. The species was described by Champion in 1889 and is known from Mexico. Like other members of the genus Statira, it belongs to a group formerly classified as the separate family Lagriidae before being subsumed into Tenebrionidae. These beetles are characterized by their elongated body form and relatively long legs and antennae compared to typical darkling beetles.
