How to catch Six-Spot Ground 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.

Where and when to find it

Desert Zone · Anthia sexmaculata

The six-spot ground beetle primarlily feeds on ants. They can mimic the ants' chemical scent and make the colony accept them as one of their own, all the while feasting freely in the nest.

Not only do they enjoy such free meals, but they're also more than happy to actively hunt down prey much larger than themselves for a "change of taste."
