Trichiotinus suburbanus

Generation 3 · descended from Trichiotinus bicolor (Two-colored click beetle) · evolved in mixed:unknown

The Suburban Clicker descended from Trichiotinus bicolor, adapting to the abundance of flowers in urban gardens and parks. Its modified proboscis and microtrichia allow it to efficiently gather resources while minimizing exposure to pollutants. The warning coloration and modified click mechanism serve as effective deterrents against urban predators, such as birds and other insects.
