Species text
Nicrophorus interruptus is an orange and black banded burying beetle widespread but local in England and Wales. This is and opportunistic and highly mobile and possibly declining species (Hyman & Parsons 1992) requiring a continuity of carrion availability. Because of its dependence on carrion this species is likely to require large areas of suitable habitat for its continued survival. References
