Species text
This pill beetle is widely distributed and local, recorded from South Devon, north to Dumfriesshire in Scotland. However in NHyman & Parson (1992) it had recently been noted in just four vice-counties. The beetle is found mainly on the coast, with records from undercliffs and brackish dykes. It probably occurs at the roots of plants in sandy places, though it is also found in grass tussocks. In areas of soft-rock cliff, occasional slippages are necessary to maintain habitat continuity. Large areas of unstable cliff are required so that the population does not become isolated and subsequently threatened by individual landslips. References
