Beginning page
Hi, Beginning this page today on Cook Strait Click Beetle — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markanderson72 (talk • contribs) 22:01, 28 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Looking good! I've added some more to it, including sections. Unfortunately the NZ TCS categories on Wikipedia are a little out of date, still talking about Range Restricted and Sparse when now it would be Relict and Naturally Uncommon. Still, we'll have to make do until someone is enthusiastic enough to fix all the NZ species that use the TCS. Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 05:48, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks - those headings make it much better -I appreciate the help, as I'm still learning my craft! A little more to add from published resources, but we are just about there as very little is known about these beetles. --Markanderson72 (talk) 07:26, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * There's potential for a separate Description section perhaps (saying they can't click or fly), and more pics if you can find them, or a drawing (I've generally had good luck contacting scientists directly and asking for photos for the Commons). Some more detail on the former range and laughing owl middens? And exactly which islands they're on, and that they've gone from the type locality (I think). When you've done this one there's the Chatham species, and maybe a page for the genus as well. Keep up the good work! Giantflightlessbirds (talk) 07:46, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Found another reference and image
I found a historic source discussing this species. See this page. That image is also in Wikicommons .Ambrosia10 (talk) 17:24, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
