南美洲一种巨型甲虫Titanus giganteus真是名符其实,对得起名字中的巨人(Titan)这个称号,它可是世界上最长的甲虫。这种甲虫是长达6英寸(15厘米)??长,还不包括它那两根突兀的触须。奇怪的是,这种甲虫成年后不会吃东西,而是一直在飞来飞去寻找伴侣,直到死去。看来,还是种多情的甲虫啊。下面是最长甲虫的照片:

LONGEST BEETLE South America’s appropriately named titan beetle (Titanus giganteus) is a huge 6 in (15 cm) long, not including its antennae. Bizarrely, adult titans don’t eat, but instead fly around in search of a mate until they die.
