    Estriate Click Beetle

    Eanus estriatus is a species of click beetle in the family Elateridae. It is known from scattered records across Canada. The common name 'Estriate Click Beetle' refers to its striated (grooved) elytra. Like other members of Elateridae, it possesses the characteristic clicking mechanism for righting itself when overturned. The species was described by John Lawrence LeConte in 1853.
