In New Leaf[edit]
Upon being donated, the beetle can be found in the first room of the bug exhibit swimming in the pond just outside the butterfly house.
In New Horizons[edit]
When donated, the diving beetle can be found swimming in the southwestern water tank of the bug exhibit. It shares this habitat with the pondskater, giant water bug, and some donated fish.
Gallery[edit]
Real-world information[edit]
Adult beetles have streamlined, oval, or football-shaped flattened bodies that are usually 12-25 millimeters (1/8-1 inch) long. Most species are brown to black but some have distinctive patterns of spots, lines, or mottling on the wing covers. They have elongate hairlike antennae. Larvae are not frequently seen and have a long thorax and long legs. The head bears conspicuous large sickle-shaped mandibles without teeth.
Predaceous diving beetles are easily confused with water scavenger beetles (Coleoptera: Hydrophilidae). The latter surface for air head first and have a ridge or keel on the underside that runs down the thorax and extends into a point.
