Here's a beetle that contracted a parasitic fungal spore which brainwashed the beetle in to burrowing underground where the spore could grow safely in to a fruiting body
>>11936That's a Cicada, not a beetle
>>11960Cicadas are not beetles. They are insects belonging to the order Hemiptera (often called "true bugs") and suborder Auchenorrhyncha, while beetles belong to the order Coleoptera. Unlike beetles, which have chewing mouthparts and hardened forewings, cicadas have sucking mouthparts for feeding on plant sap and clear, membranous wings.
