Heterocerus selanderi
Heterocerus selanderi is a species of variegated mud-loving beetle in the family Heteroceridae, described by Pacheco in 1969. The species epithet honors the entomologist Richard B. Selander. Members of this genus are typically associated with moist, muddy habitats near water bodies. Like other heterocerids, this species likely exhibits the family's characteristic digging behavior and filter-feeding habits on organic material in mud.
