PEDILID BEETLE



                         Age: 25 million years

                         Period: Cenozoic Era, Oligocene Epoch
                         Location: Dominican Republic

                         These beetles of the Pedilidae family are also known as false ants. Adults live on flowers or

                         greenery, where they feed on the plants' sap and nectar. The growing larvae live in rotting
                         vegetation in moist environments.
                         The fossil pictured shows that Pedilid beetles have remained unchanged for millions of
                         years. Pedilid beetles, still identical to present-day specimens despite all the intervening

                         years, tell us that the theory of evolution is a terrible deception.
