Hi,
I'm chloe, I'm living and working in Cornwall, I'm at the start of a PhD on Nicrophorus vespilloides. I'm just starting out keeping invertebrates, currently I have some Phylliums (Phyllia?) but I'm not sure what species they are, I was told celebecium, but they look much more like giganteum.
I was trying to figure out what they are when I found this place, seems there's some people who know their stuff, so no doubt I'll be annoying the hell out of them with my stupid questions and general lack of knowledge
Oh my god, I just spell checked, and Nicrophorus comes up as necrophilias  |

sorry, bad habit, talking in latin all the time
Nicrphorus is a beetle, the burying or sexton beetle, lovely little orange and black thing, they eat dead mice and other small vertibrates.
