Eleodeus
The Eleodeus field of the Beetles subsection should be used to record any observation of darkling beetle in the genus Eleodeus.
Eleodeus beetles are black in color and strongly associated with guano. They have three noticeable body sections and are usually rounder and thinner than Embaphion.

Embaphion
The Embaphion field of the Beetles subsection should be used to record any observation of darkling beetle in the genus Embaphion.
Embaphion beetles are black in color and strongly associated with guano as they feed on it. The primary features of Embaphion which distinguish it from Eleodeus are that the shell of Embaphion curls upward at the edges and Embaphion have only two noticeable body segments. Embaphion is also flatter and wider than Eleodeus.

Rhadine
The Rhadine field should be used to list stations where Rhadine beetles are observed.
Rhadine is a genus of ground beetle. Looking like a large red ant with a fat butt, they can often be seen running along the floor. One sign that Rhadine beetles may be in the area is fluffed up floor sediments. Care should be taken not to disturb these areas as it may injure the beetles. Rhadine beetles often live in the silt on the cave floor where they dig up and consume cricket eggs.
