Updated: 02/09/2026; Authored By Staff Writer; Content ©www.InsectIdentification.org There are a large variety of Hister, or Clown Beetles, and most species have not been studied. These tiny black beetles can be found making homes anywhere and out of anything. They are so small that when they tuck their legs in under themselves, they can be mistaken for tiny black seeds. This could be a defense mechanism for them. Some species of Clown Beetle live in trees; others live in abandoned rodent burrows. Some species eat only fungi, while others eat anything they can find including animal dung and rotting produce. Clown Beetles have been efficient at carving out a niche for each of species, maximizing survival in each beetle's environment and circumstance.©InsectIdentification.org Known Diet of the Hister-Beetle decaying produce; rotting wood; fungi Note: The above text is EXCLUSIVE to the site www.InsectIdentification.org.

This sort of data is useful when attempting to see concentrations of particular species across the continent as well as revealing possible migratory patterns over a species' given lifespan. Some insects are naturally confined by environment, weather, mating habits, food resources and the like while others see widespread expansion across most, or all, of North America. States/Territories shown above are a general indicator of areas inhabited by the Hister Beetle. Insects generally go where they please, typically driven by diet, environmental changes, and / or mating habits.
