Rove beetle
ROVE BEETLE AND TWO FLIES
Age: 45 million years
Period: Eocene
Location: Baltic States, Jantarny, Russia
The oldest fossils of rove beetles, belonging to the family of
Staphylinidae , are from the Triassic period (248 to 206 million years
ago). Two flies were fossilized beside this beetle in the amber. The rove
beetles that lived 200 million years ago and those that lived 45 million
years ago are no different from those that are still alive today. This sit-
uation, which proves that they never underwent evolution, also shows
Fly
that Creation is a fact.
