During my latest excursion to Borneo, I was able to track down the rare Trilobite Beetle! Named after the 500 million-year-old trilobite fossils that look so similar. Will I be able to find this prehistoric-looking bug? Watch to find out!

Female trilobite beetle seems to be the least beetle-looking of beetles

What is the oldest trilobite fossil found? This is AMAZING! I'm so. Excited that there are LIVING life forms that existed in or before dinosaur times. This is the first time I came across one of your videos. I'm definitely going to subscribe 😄

You discovered the armored-cherry millipede! Not too smart smelling like something good to eat-unless there are poisonous/toxic things in that particular jungle that smell of cherries.
@MermaidMakes
@MermaidMakes Месяц назад
Some Millipedes species secrete cyanide gas, which smells a bit like almonds/ cherries, since they both contain trace cyanide as well. That’s my educated guess. Other animals have a much more acute sense of smell than humans and may be able to recognize it as a toxic chemical.
@MermaidMakes

Ah, the poop hand sniff. A staple of herping. Also my educated guess about the cherry smell would be that this is one of many known millipede species to secrete cyanide gas. Cyanide is frequently said to have an almond / cherry smell.

@@Drache832I looked into it a bit further. It seems that many millipedes in the genus Trigoniulus, of which the one in the video most likely belongs to, secrete a chemical cocktail containing both. I’m no entomologist. Just a herpetologist 😅. The one thing I don’t like about Brave Wilderness videos is that they don’t include scientific names so you have to do a lot of guesswork. If an entomologist wants to chime in I’d be very grateful.

The trilobite beetle has some insane sexual dimorphism. They look nothing alike. Not only do they look like different species, they look like they are only distantly related.

That amored millipede was real cool looking. I liked how it curled itself up for safety. I think the reason for the cherry scent could propably be that there could be some preditors that don't like the cherry scent. It could be a possibility, unless if scentist can find the mystery behind it. The trilobite beetle was really cool looking. I really loved the red color blending in with the dark coat. Really made it more noticeable. I really loved that tiny little face. I could clearly see her face, even with it being so small. I was glad you were able to find it and make physical contact. That definitely was a really cool video.

You must not have gone too deep into the jungles. You pano shot showed a completely decimated tract of land. Very unfortunately, that’s become ever more common there. Especially on the Malaysian side of the border. Kalimantan has enormous areas that have been leveled, but also enormous areas that are still pristine. Malaysian Borneo is disappearing at lightning speed.

It Looks similar to the larvae of fire flies. It also has These larval legs and has a general larval Look to it. Does the female even have a pupa state? Because it doesnt Look like an adult Beetle at all. A female fire fly doesnt Look like a typical beetle aswell, but it has normal Beetle legs and a normal Beetle head. Unlike that trilobite beetle. Too Bad he wasnt talking about that during the video

Both ants and mosquito exist since the Mesozoic era. While cockroaches been around for over 300 million years. Perhaps the trilobite beetle been around since Devonian or early Carboniferous period.

Armored millipedes, particularly those belonging to the genus Apheloria, can emit a chemical called benzaldehyde when threatened or disturbed. Benzaldehyde is the same compound responsible for the characteristic smell of cherries and almonds. This chemical serves as a defense mechanism to deter predators by producing a strong, pungent odor that is often associated with toxicity or unpalatability. ~chatgpt

I can actually understand that, a bit. False cherry-laurel smells a lot like marzipan, and while I like the fragrance, it's not surprising that animals don't, if most things that smell like sugary crushed almonds it poisonous.
