How to catch Black Chafer Beetle

Use the Insect Net. The exact approach depends on the creature’s category and, for shore-dwellers, its species type.

1. Equip the Insect Net and approach the creature at eye level or on the ground.
2. Most insects can be caught with a simple net swipe; slow down if the species is skittish.
3. Check tree trunks, flowers, shrubs, crops and aerial spaces — the habitat column tells you where this species spawns.

The black chafer beetle has a plate-like sensor on its antennae that can detect the scents of plants. By relying on this special "nose," they can precisely locate their favorite crops and feast with great delight.
