Eyed Click Beetles (Alaus oculatus) can be found in woodlands and yards across the eastern United States. They’re often found in areas with rotting logs or with trees containing wood boring beetles.

Over time, beetle pollination has influenced the form and even the scent of magnolia flowers. And to
